Summary

Mango cv. Zill fruits picked at an advanced stage of maturation were either prestored (20 deg C for 72 hours) or placed directly in cold storage. The beneficial effects of prestorage were offset by the negative effects of an increased incidence of disease and overripeness after cold-storage. Direct placement in cold storage at 8 deg C was deemed the best storage option.
