SUMMARY
Endomitosis is defined as chromosomal replication without nuclear or cellular division, resulting in cells that contain multiple copies of the same chromosome. This process is distinct from traditional mitosis and leads to cells with double the chromosome count. Endomitosis has practical applications in fruit biotechnology, particularly in enhancing fruit size.
