Abstract

Controlled atmosphere (CA) storage of mango fruit (cv Rad) was studied using two combinations of carbon dioxide (4 and 6%) and three oxygen levels (4, 6 and 8%). the fruits were evaluated at 5 day intervals for various quality attributes, incidence of pathogenic decay and sensory quality. All CA treatments slowed the yellowing of both peel and flesh. After CA storage, fruit were stored at 13, 20 and 30C and the ripening periods were 7, 3 and 2 days, respectively. the best CA storage was 4%CO2/6%O2 at 13C.
