Four histological micrographs show transverse sections of plant tissue at different developmental stages: Bud, 18 days post anthesis (DPA), 21 DPA, and 27 DPA. Red arrowheads mark vascular or boundary regions, and the 21 DPA panel includes a magnified inset highlighting cellular detail. Labels indicate fruit to stem orientation. — Pedicel detachment force across fruit development in Physalis grisea. Boxplots show the force (N) required to detach the pedicel at 0, 4, 11, 18, and 25 DPA. Sample sizes per time point: 0 DPA, n = 25; 4 DPA, n = 24; 11 DPA, n = 24; 18 DPA, n = 21; 25 DPA, n = 14. Groups not sharing a letter differ by Dunn’s post-hoc test (Holm-adjusted) following a Kruskal–Wallis test (α = 0.05).
