Dear all,
we have 2 olive stones from a toumb context in a Syrian site, which
differ considerably in size.
I would be interested in general in seed size variability of the
species and in "within-plant variability".
Can anyone recommend publications with raw data on olive seed lengths? Thanks.
Simone
