The number of seeds within a fruit is also tightly linked to fruit size and shape in species with multiple fused carpels. If only one ovule, or a subset of the total ovules, is fertilized, it can result in abnormal development close to the unfertilized ovules and fruit asymmetry (Figure 7c). Additionally, fruit size has been shown to be positively correlated with seed number in strawberry, kiwifruit, and apple. Generally, the more seeds a fruit contains, the bigger it is. The relationship between fertilization, seed development, fruit development, fruit size, and fruit shape explain why growers of some tree fruit crops (see Summary Chart) bring in supplemental pollinators to ensure that the maximum number of ovules within each flower are pollinated.
