Sometimes the fruits fall even before they are ripe. Give reasons.
Fall of fruits is due to formation of abscission layers in their stalk. The formation of this layer is controlled by hormones auxins present in leaves. Abscission layer is sometimes formed earlier leading to fruit fall even before they ripe. Artificially it is done by spraying hormones encouraging abscission.
