Pomology (from Latin pomum (fruit) + -logy) is a branch of botany that studies and cultivates fruit. The denomination fruticulture—introduced from Romance languages (from Latin fructus and cultura)—is also used.
Q.A group of fruits which show neither a rise in respiration rate nor an associated production of ethylene during the ripening process is called ……….
- Parthenocarpic
- Climacteric
- Non-climacteric
- Parthenogenetic
Non-climacteric
The non–climacteric fruit is the fruit that does not ripen after the harvest. All fruits and many vegetables and walnuts are classified as climacteric or not climacteric. The fruits will ripen, that is to say, they’ll become softer and sweeter after the harvest.
Q. A series of biochemical changes initiated by the catalytic production of ethylene; making the changes from growth to senescence and involving an increase in respiration rate is called………….
- Maturity
- Ripening
- Climacteric
- Senescence
Climacteric
Climacteric fruits are those fruits which are associated with increased ethylene production and high cellular respiration during ripening such as apple, banana, mango, melon, and apricot.

Amphimixis means reproduction which involves mixing of gametes. As gametes are not involved in vegetative reproduction and apomixis,
Q. An example of slow release fertilizer is
- Coated urea
- CAN
- DAP
- KCl
Coated urea
Coated urea fertilizers are a group of controlled release fertilizers consisting of prills of urea coated in less-soluble chemicals such as sulfur, polymers, other products or a combination. These fertilizers mitigate some of the negative aspects of urea fertilization, such as fertilizer burn.
Q. Application of which chemical acts as an aid for mechanical harvesting ?
- GA3
- IAA
- Kinetin
- ABA
Ans
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.
Detail
Abscisic acid (ABA) is a plant hormone. ABA functions in many plant developmental processes, including seed and bud dormancy, the control of organ size and stomatal closure.
Q. AVG is an inhibitor of
- Ethylene
- Cytokinin
- Gibberellin
- Auxin
Ethylene
AVG is an inhibitor of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) synthase, a key enzyme involved in ethylene biosynthesis. Silver and 1-MCP are both inhibitors of the ethylene receptors. Inhibitor use as well as off-target effects are described with a focus on ethylene responses in dark-grown Arabidopsis seedlings.
Q. Best soil for planting a fruit orchard should have pH between
- 3.5-5.5
- 6.5-7.5
- 7.5-10.5
- 4.5-6.5
6.5-7.5
Q. Best time of budding in peach, plum, pear and apple is

- March-April
- May-June
- May-June
Jan.-Feb.
Budding is a type of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops from an outgrowth or bud due to cell division at one particular site.
Q. Bordeaux mixture was discovered by P.A. Millardet of France in 1882 following his chance observation of a farmer’s practice for protection against
- Plasmopara viticola on grapevine
- Podoshora leuchtricha on apple

- Unciula necator on grapive
Plasmopara viticola on grapevine
Plasmopara viticola, the causal agent of grapevine downy mildew, is a heterothallic oomycete that overwinters as oospores in leaf litter and soil. In the spring, oospores germinate to produce macrosporangia,
Q. Bt gene is incorporated for
