Pistil (also called a carpel ) has a stigma, style and ovary . it is the female part of the flower. Fruits arise from a ripened ovary. Ovary holds ovules which will become seeds .

A carpel is the structure which includes both the ovary and its associated ovule(s) in a flower. The number of carpels, and the degree of fusion between carpels, varies among plant species. The common tree fruit crops grown in California generally contain either a single carpel, or multiple fused carpels (see Summary Chart). For example, flowers of walnut, pistachio, and all crop species within the genus Prunus contain a single carpel while female kiwifruit flowers contain at least 30 fused carpels .
After pollination and fertilization, carpels develop into the fruit tissue we eat (ovary) and the seeds within (ovules). Fruit development is initiated by growth regulating hormones produced by developing seeds. Because carpels ultimately develop into fruit tissue, the number of carpels in a flower determines the degree to which pollination and seed development is required to produce fruit. Flowers with one carpel only require fertilization of one of the two ovules to produce fruit. In contrast, species with multiple fused carpels require fertilization of a smaller proportion of the total ovules within a flower for fruit development. The growth regulating hormones produced by a subset of the total possible seeds are sufficient to initiate the development of fused carpels into fruit. As a result, normal fruit development is less dependent on seed development in species with multiple fused carpels.
