Effect of spraying of essential oils and passive modified atmosphere packaging on selected postharvest quality parameters and stem-end rot development in <em>Mangifera indica<em> (cultivar <em>Karthakolomban</em>)
Abstract:Mangifera indica L. (cultivar Karthakolomban) is more prone to stem-end rot (SER) disease that causes substantial postharvest losses in quality as well as quantity. The objective of this study was to use aqueous emulsions of basil (1.6 µL/mL), clove (2.0 µL/mL), cinnamon leaf (2.0 µL/mL) and cinnamon bark (1.6 µL/mL) oils as sprays with passive modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) in low density polyethylene (LDPE) bags as a bio-safe strategy to control SER of 'Karthakolomban' mango stored at 12-14 °C and 85-90… Show more
