Effects of preharvest chitosan application on fruit weight and fruit size at harvest in ‘Garmrok’ kiwifruit. Experimental data represent means ± standard error with n = 10. * in each column indicate significant differences between treatments on harvest day, according to the least significant difference (LSD) test at p ≤ 0.05.

Treatment	Fruit Weight (g)	Fruit Size (mm)
		Length	Longitudinal Width	Transverse Width
Control	81.49 ± 1.1	55.17 ± 0.7	55.85 ± 0.7	52.06 ± 0.6 *
Chitosan 100 mg·L−1	86.27 ± 2.4 *	54.72 ± 1.2	54.25 ± 0.5	50.28 ± 0.4
Chitosan 500 mg·L−1	91.79 ± 2.9 *	55.17 ± 1.1	55.45 ± 0.5	51.86 ± 0.6
