Silencing GRAS2 reduces fruit weight in tomato [PDF]
AbstractGRAS family transcription factors are involved in multiple biological processes in plants. Here, we report that GRAS2 plays a vital role in regulating fruit weight in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). We establish that the expression of GRAS2 was elevated in ovaries and maintained at a constant level in fertilized ovules.

A Richards growth model to predict fruit weight
SummaryThe Richards model comprises several popular sigmoidal and monomolecular growth curves. We illustrate fitting of a Bayesian Richards model by splitting the full growth model into several submodels, followed by a model selection procedure. The performance of the methodology is evaluated by Monte Carlo simulations.

Growing conditions do not affect allometric estimation of fresh fruit weight, but affect estimation of dry fruit weight of ‘Kent’ mango [PDF]
An essential aspect of studies on fruit growth is the accurate and nondestructive on-field estimation of key variables of interest such as fresh or dry fruit weight. Allometric relationships between a key variable of interest and one or several easy-to-measure variables that are used as predictors are convenient and powerful tools for this goal ...
