Types of plants based on fruiting pattern

Monocarpic: They are plants which flower and fruit only once in life. All annuals and biennials are monocarpic, Some perennial plants are also monocarpic, e.g- Agave, Bambusa tulda, Melocanna bambusoides. They die after bearing fruits. 


Polycarpic:They are perennial plants bearing blowers and fruits every year after attaining maturity. e.g-Mango. peepal. Mango shows biennial bearing i.e., one year fruiting is more and in next year, it is poor.
