Why do we not get fruits from flowering plants

Explanation:
the male plants of dioecious species do not produce fruits. But, if a plant that is not dioecious fails to produce fruit, then there is a “problem.” There may be several possibilities, such as
- It may be a product of hybridization and meiosis fails to work properly (as in a mule).
- There may have been a frost so “hard” that the flowers just fell off.
- It may be self-incompatible (its own pollen does not work on its own stigmas) and needs another plant for successful pollination (as in some varieties of cherry trees).
- More likely than these is that the plant is experiencing environmental factors that are within its tolerance range for self (can grow, produce vegetative roots, stems and leaves) but are beyond the range of tolerance for producing flowers. Good examples of this can be seen in ornamental plants. Many nice ornamental plants seem to be flowering plants, but never produce flowers. If one moves the plant, such as moving a houseplant to a brighter window, it may flower.

Answer:
because of poor pollination
Explanation:
pollinators transfer pollen from Male flowers (above)to female flowers in cucurbit species. The absence of pollinators or low numbers of female flowers can result in fewer fruits produced.
