  1. Triploids do not produce viable seeds.


  2. at meiosis it is not possible for 3 sets of chromosomes to be evenly divided between two cells. As a result most of the gametes contain abnormal chromosome numbers, which usually lead to dead gametes

  3. They are waiting. Silently plotting for the right moment. You'll see. And when the time comes it will be too late for you to do anything about it!
