Increase in fruit size of a spontaneous mutant of ‘Gala’ apple (Malus×domestica Borkh.) is facilitated by altered cell production and enhanced cell size

Fruit size regulation was studied in the apple cultivar ‘Gala’ and a large fruit size spontaneous mutant of ‘Gala’, ‘Grand Gala’ (GG). GG fruits were 15% larger in diameter and 38% heavier than ‘Gala’ fruits, largely due to an increase in size of the fruit cortex. The mutation in GG altered growth p...
