Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association Fruit size QTLs in L2 and L9 were associated with cell division.
- Observation Cell expansion was homogeneous except in Cervil.
- Association Cell and fruit sizes correlated with DNA content.
- Observation Fruit composition QTLs reflected water accumulation differences.
- Observation Carbon allocation to cell structures increased in L9.
- Observation Effects in Lx were attenuated except for fruit size and cell division.
- Observation Chromosome 9 region may control size and composition.
