Description
Key Features of a Syconium
- Unique Pollination: A small opening called an ostiole allows a specific fig wasp species to enter and pollinate the internal flowers.
- Mutualism: The fig and its pollinator wasp have a symbiotic relationship: the fig provides a safe place for the wasp to lay eggs, and the wasp ensures fig reproduction.
- Fruitlets: The edible “fruit” of a fig is actually the mature syconium, containing numerous tiny, seed-bearing fruits called druplets.
- Accessory Fruit: The fleshy part of the fig develops from the stem or receptacle, not the flower’s ovary, making it an accessory fruit.
