Effect of Eco-Friendly Post Harvest Treatments on Decay Index of Mango Fruits Cv. Alphonso
Journal Title: International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences (IJCMAS) - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 5
Abstract
An investigation was carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of post-harvest dip treatments on decay index of mango fruits cv. Alphonso. Freshly harvested and pre-cooled Alphonso mango fruits were treated with different post-harvest dip treatments and evaluated for the parameters like total soluble solids, decay index and visual skin colour change. Among different treatments, minimum TSS (15.60°B) was noted in hot water treated fruits, lower decay index (0.89%) and higher score for visual skin colour (8.83) throughout the storage period was observed in azoxystrobin treated fruits as compared to untreated fruits.
