parthenocarpic fruits occur without fertilisation....... so nutrition value is low......and genetically,not much variation......so the fruits don't have seeds.....so no further reproduction

Heyy mate...Good afternoon...Here's you're answer...
Disadvantages of Parthenogenesis/Parthenocarpy:
Parthenogenesis can be disadvantageous because it limits the genetic diversity that comes from repeatedly combining genetic material. This variation strengthens a species in the long term, and allows for the sexual selection of individual traits.
Changes from sexual reproduction to female‐producing parthenogenesis (thelytoky) have great evolutionary and ecological consequences, but how many times parthenogenesis evolved in different animal taxa is unknown. ... These differences did not solely evolve after the transition to parthenogenesis.
