Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Thirteen fungal species were isolated from mango fruit surfaces.
- Observation Aspergilus niger, Aspergillus flavus and Cladosporium cladosporoides had higher frequencies on mango fruits.
- Intervention effect Gamma rays at 0.5 KGy best controlled fungal load on mango fruit.
- Intervention effect UV-C irradiation ranked after gamma rays for controlling mango fungal load.
- Observation The control group had maximum mango fungal load.
- Recommendation The authors suggest gamma irradiation and UV-C could replace hot water treatment in mango.
