Abstract
The quality of 'Kensington' mangoes (Mangifera indica Linn.) from 2 major Queensland production regions was evaluated following a hot air [HAT, also known as vapour heat (VHT)] disinfestation treatment (46.5¦C seed surface temperature held for 10 min under conditions of high humidity) combined with a disease control treatment (55¦C water for 5 min) prior to HAT, and storage conditions likely to be encountered during air shipment to Japan (either 10¦C for 5 days plus 22¦C for 5 days, or 13¦C for 5 days plus 22¦C for 5 days, or 22¦C for 10 days). Final quality was optimum if fruit were treated with HAT alone and stored at 22¦C. Fruit injury, in the form of skin browning and lenticel spotting, was particularly severe in HAT plus disease controI fruit stored at 10/22¦C. Storage at 10¦C combined with heat treatments may be too stressful to fruit physiology, leading to fruit injury and reduced fruit quality at the market destination.
