Harvested mango fruits were managed with 4 treatments: 1) dipped in double diluted solution of D8 shellac; 2) dipped in double diluted solution of N3 shellac; 3) dipped in 0.1% methyl cellulose solution + 0.1% Tecto; and 4) control. The fruits treated were then wrapped with sterilized paper and stored in a room with a maximum temperature of 22.5 °C and minimum temperature of 19 °C, and relative humidity of 88%.
