In-Orchard Sizing of Mango Fruit: 2. Forward Estimation of Size at Harvest
Horticulturae, 2023 Forecast of tree fruit yield requires prediction of harvest time fruit size as well as fruit number. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) fruit mass can be estimated from correlation to measurements of fruit length (L), width (W) and thickness (T).

Simulating fruit growth and size analysis
Acta Horticulturae, 2023 Growth of fruit and fruit size is of major importance for growers. Growth in size during cell expansion is well known (adapted van Bertalanffy model) and well applied taking care of the ever-present variation. Explained parts reach well over 98%. What is not very well understood is the increase in number of cells and the associated size increase, just ...
