Effect of different chemicals on post harvest physical changes in mango (Mangifera indica L.) fruit during storage

Mango fruits (cv. Langra) were tested with 2,4-D (50, 100 ppm) during 1987-89. After treatment fruits were analyzed physically at room storage (day temp. 40.2 degrees C and night temp. 26.9'C). The analysis was repeated four times at four days interval. Weight loss, skin and pulp colour develop...

Summary:Mango fruits (cv. Langra) were tested with 2,4-D (50, 100 ppm) during 1987-89. After treatment fruits were analyzed physically at room storage (day temp. 40.2 degrees C and night temp. 26.9'C). The analysis was repeated four times at four days interval. Weight loss, skin and pulp colour development and wrinkling was found minimum in 2,4-D (50 ppm) and Cycocel) (500 ppm) treated fruits as compared with other treatments throughout storage period. However, fruits of these treatments showed less organoleptic values during initial period of storage as compared with other treatments but on the 16th day of storage it was more than other treatments.
