title: Medlar (Mespilus germanica L.) fruit morphology depending on fruit size
abstract: The present study aims to investigate the effects of fruit size of medlar (Mespilus germanica L.) on fruit and seed morphology. Medlar fruits were harvested from the crowns of ten trees near Đulovac, Croatia, in autumn 2022 and 2023 at commercial maturity. Before morphological analysis, the fruits were divided into three groups according to their weight: small (&amp;lt; 14g), medium-sized (14 – 17g) and large (&amp;gt; 17g). Fruit size, year and the interaction between the fruit size and year ha
