Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

Studies were conducted on green banana, mango and orange (mosumbi) to measure the rate of respiration and to determine the heat of respiration at different temperatures and CO2 concentrations. The respiration rate and heat of respiration reduced with an increase in CO2 concentration and decrease in O2 level and storage temperature. Results revealed that the rate of respiration and also the heat of respiration varied exponentially with temperature for various concentrations of CO2 and O2.
