“…Recent applications of MAP have been effective for both climacteric fruits such as avocado (Sellamuthu et al, 2013), breadfruit (Roopa et al, 2015) and figs (Villalobos et al, 2014), and non-climacteric fruits such as pineapples (Finnegan et al, 2013), cherries (Colgecen and Aday, 2015), and oranges (Barrios et al, 2014).
