Summary

Sea-exported South African mangoes were sampled and evaluated in Europe (mainly the Netherlands/Belgium) from 27 December 1995 to 26 March 1996. The incidence of soft brown rot and anthracnose differed between cultivars, and increased as fruits ripened. The incidence of external chilling injury, internal browning, internal breakdown and lenticel damage differed between cultivars. Heidi showed highest incidence of external chilling injury and internal browning. Lenticel damage was most severe in Tommy Atkins and Isis. Heidi, Irwin, Isis, Keitt, Kent, Tommy Atkins, Sensation and Zill were the cultivars evaluated.
