Description As in other fruits and vegetables, the stage
of maturity at the time .of cold storage is
of considerable importance in the case of
mangoes also. With regard to the optimum
temperature for the cold storage of mangoes,
Cheema, Karmarkar and Joshi (1) have concluded
that green fruit is chilled below 45°F
and that 48°F is the optimum temperature for
storage of this fruit. According to
.ardlaw and Leonard (2) the optimum temperature
for the cold storage of mangoes is
45°F. Mathur, Singh and Kapur (3, 4) have
shown that with a relative humidity of 85-90
per cent, the temperatures of storage and the
maximum storage periods are as follows:
(i) Seedling mangoes, 42-45°F; 42 days.
(ii) Raspuri mangoes, 42-45°F; 42 days and
(iii) Badami mangoes, 47-50°F; 28 days. Singh
and Mathur (5) have recommended a temperature
of 67-70°F as the optimum for the ripening
of mangoes. In the case of Krishnabhog
and Langra varieties, Singh, Sheshagiri and
Gupta (6) observed a climacteric rise in the
respiratory rate with the commencement of
ripening. Karmarkar and Joshi (7) found that
the respiratory activity of the green fruit of 'B'
stage of maturity stored at 68°F increased
idually, reached the climacteric and then
uecreased during ripening. The cold storage
behaviour of the `Totapuri' (Bangalora) thango
is dealt with in the present paper.
