Abstract
Summary The effects of gamma irradiation and disease control treatments on disease severity and post harvest quality of several mango cultivars were investigated. In mangoes cv. Kensington Pride, irradiation doses ranging from 300–1200 Gy reduced disease, but the level of control was not commercially acceptable. Hot benomyl immediately followed by irradiation provided effective control of anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides) and stem end rot (Dothiorella dominicana) during short‐term storage (15 days at 20°C). The effects of the two treatments were additive. Satisfactory disease control was achieved during long term controlled atmosphere storage when mangoes were treated with hot benomyl followed by prochloraz and then irradiated. Effects of fungicide treatment and irradiation were additive. Fungicide, or irradiation treatments alone, were unsatisfactory. Irradiation of cv. Kensington Pride at doses in excess of 600 Gy caused unacceptable surface damage (i.e. lenticel spotting, surface discolouration and retardation of degreening) which was particularly severe after long‐term controlled atmosphere storage. In a separate short‐term storage trial, several other mango cultivars were assessed. Hot benomyl followed by prochloraz controlled anthracnose on all cultivars and stem end rot on some. Irradiation at 600 Gy contributed only minor improvements to disease control. The severity of surface damage that developed following irradiation and fungicide treatment varied with cultivars.
