ABSTRACT
The experiment was investigation on the role of calcium chloride spray on post-harvest behavior of mango fruits (Mangifera Indica L.) cv. Raspuri, were carried out at the mango orchard at UAS, GKVK Campus, Bangalore, Karnataka, India during 2011-12. Mango trees were sprayed with CaCl2 at 30 days and 15 days before harvest with three replications in a Complete Randomized Design. The results revealed that 1.50% CaCl2 at 30 days before harvest significantly increased the number of days taken for ripening of fruits (9.11 days), the shelf-life of fruits (15.89 days), physico-chemical parameters like fruit length (8.68 cm), breadth (7.56 cm), thickness (7.07 cm), volume (225.00 ml), weight of fruit (231.67 g) and pulp weight of fruit (99.44 g), TSS of fruit (19.130 Brix), total sugars content (13.00 %), reducing sugar content (2.65 %), non-reducing sugar content (10.35 %) and minimum percentage of titratable acidity of fruit (0.14%) and Whereas organoleptic qualities of fruits for overall acceptance (68.98 points) were given to control as compare to all other treatment.
