seedless varieties
Grapes without seeds
Seedless varieties are cultivated plants bred or engineered to produce fruit without seeds—seedless grapes, seedless watermelons, seedless oranges.
The term appears most often in agriculture and grocery contexts: We only buy seedless varieties now.
Since these plants can't reproduce naturally from seed, they're propagated through cuttings, grafting, or other vegetative methods.
