| After flower pollination, tiny fruits develop within the syconium, which turns into the ripened fig. |
|
| Excessive pollination by fig wasps from a nearby caprifig tree caused the syconium to split open. |
|
| Earlier, at the flower stage, the syconium is the same shape but much smaller. |
|
| The vase-shaped multiple fruit of a fig is sometimes called a syconium. |
|
| Currently, unknown genes still determine whether a seed from a single syconium will be a caprifig or an female fig. |
