Can we have fruitset from flowers not exposed (i.e. bagged)? If so, should we change the term definition to be general enough to allow sharing fruitset from bagged flowers?
In #41 I have suggested the creation of a new term flowerState, but perhaps it should be something like flowerTreatment, since the exposed, bagged, etc. conditions are different treatments for collecting the same measurement.
I have found some examples of fruit set that are not directly related to the Interactions:

So, it is possible that a fruit set will not have any Interaction linked to it. But it can represent an outcome from multiple interactions that occurred in a plant or a set of plant individuals. How use it in conjunction with Interaction class and other terms?
Definition proposal: "Proportion of the pollinated flowers that yielded fruits"
I agree with the proposal of @fonturbel , which makes the definition more general.

I also agree with @fonturbel proposal.
New definition: Proportion of the pollinated flowers that yielded fruits
