| Currently, unknown genes still determine whether a seed from a single syconium will be a caprifig or an female fig. |
| Inside the caprifig are the grubs of the fig-wasp, which rejoice in the name of Blastophaga grossorum. |
| At the same time she covers the ordinary flowers with pollen from the caprifig. |
| Excessive pollination by fig wasps from a nearby caprifig tree caused the syconium to split open. |
| The caprifig, whose syconia are generally considered to be inedible, is the wild fig of Asia Minor. |
