Poor pollination is a common reason for odd shaped berries - the actual
fruits (botanically speaking) are what we think of as seeds on the surface
of the berry. They are actually achenes - one seeded fruits. If they set
uniformly, the "berry" (actually the receptacle) develops evenly. If not
all of them set, the "berry" only develops where there is an achene.
