Abstract
Abstract Nut weight and percent kernel are most commonly used to estimate size and kernel development of pecans (Carya illinoensis). However, because of differences in shell thickness, nut specific gravity (NSG) is considered, by some, to be more appropriate than percent kernel as a measure of kernel development (2, 3). Another disadvantage of measuring percent kernel is that it is a time-consuming procedure that requires care in nut cracking and kernel extraction.
