Commentary for Sukkah 62:7

תא שמע שיעור אתרוג קטן רבי מאיר אומר כאגוז ר' יהודה אומר כביצה לאו משום דבעי הדר לא משום דלא גמר פירא

Come and hear, "The minimum size of an Etrog: Rabbi Meir says, 'Like a walnut;' Rabbi Yehudah says, 'Like an egg.'" Is [Rabbi Yehudah's opinion] not because he requires beauty? No. It is because it is not fully ripened [and is not considered a complete Etrog].
