- DIBA
Correct answer

Step-by-step solution
Parthenocarpic fruits are those fruits which develop without fertilization. They are seedless fruit. Example: Banana, grapes etc. Auxin is used to induce the development of parthenocarpic fruits. IAA is an indole acetic acid that is auxin, 2,4-D is 2,4-di phenoxy acetic acid that is synthetic auxin, ABA is abscisic acid that is also known as the stress hormone and IBA is indole butyric acid that is also auxin hormone. We know auxin helps in the development of parthenocarpic fruits.
