A Comparison of Machine Vision Based Methods for On-Tree Estimation of Mango Fruit Size and Mass
Horticulturae, 2022 Estimation of fruit size on-tree is useful for yield estimation, harvest timing and market planning. Automation of measurement of fruit size on-tree is possible using RGB-depth (RGB-D) cameras, if partly occluded fruit can be removed from consideration ...

Frugivore-fruit size relationships between palms and mammals reveal past and future defaunation impacts. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2020 Mammalian frugivores are critical seed dispersers, but many are under threat of extinction. Futhermore, the impact of past and future defaunation on plant assemblages has yet to be quantified at the global scale.

Water Deficit Timing Affects Physiological Drought Response, Fruit Size, and Bitter Pit Development for 'Honeycrisp' Apple. [PDF]
Plants (Basel), 2020 Irrigation is critical to maintain plant growth and productivity in many apple-producing regions. ‘Honeycrisp’ apple characteristically develops large fruit that are also susceptible to bitter pit.

Genetic and signalling pathways of dry fruit size: targets for genome editing-based crop improvement. [PDF]
Plant Biotechnol J, 2020 Summary Fruit is seed‐bearing structures specific to angiosperm that form from the gynoecium after flowering. Fruit size is an important fitness character for plant evolution and an agronomical trait for crop domestication/improvement.

Viewpoint Planning for Fruit Size and Position Estimation [PDF]
IEEE/RJS International Conference on Intelligent RObots and Systems, 2020 Modern agricultural applications require knowledge about the position and size of fruits on plants. However, occlusions from leaves typically make obtaining this information difficult.
