The Shulchan Aruch rules in accordance with the Rosh and adds that one should specifically eat less than a
kezayit in order not to enter into any doubt regarding whether a concluding beracha (beracha acharona) is
required, and this is the accepted custom.

a Shulchan Aruch, Orach Chaim 473:6 ו:געת ח״וא | ע״וש . 24
One takes less than a kezayit of karpas and dips it in vinegar, ץמוחב ולבטמו תיזכמ תוחפ ספרכהמ חקיו…
and recites the beracha of borei pri ha’adama and then eats. ךרבמ וניאו ,לכואו המדאה ירפ ארוב ךרבמו
One does not recite the concluding beracha. .וירחא

If one did eat a kezayit, one should nevertheless not recite a beracha acharona because the beracha on Karpas
is supposed to cover the consumption of the maror as well, as explained by the Mishna Berura.

a Mishna Berura 473:55-56 ונ-הנ:געת | הרורב הנשמ . 25

55) And recites the beracha of borei pri ha’adama – And וז הכרבב רוטפל ןיוכיו – א”הפ ארוב ךרבמו )הנ
one should have intention to exempt the maror that one will :]םינורחא[ כ”חא לכאיש רורמה םג
eat later with this beracha.
יפל תיזכ לכא םא וליפא – וירחא ךרבמ וניאו )ונ
56) One does not recite the concluding beracha – Even if one .רורמה לע םג יאק הנושאר הכרבש
ate a kezayit, since the first beracha covers the maror as well.
