Solution(By Examveda Team)

Pusa bedana is the seedless variety of watermelon developed at IARI, Pusa.
It is a triploid variety of watermelon.
It was developed by crossing Tetra-2 (a tetraploid) with Pusa rasaal (a diploid).
A seedless watermelon is a sterile hybrid that is created by crossing the male pollen (22 chromosomes) of a watermelon with a female watermelon flower (44 chromosomes per cell).
