Résumé

Storage of mango (Mangifera indica L. cvs. Tommy Atkins and Keitt) fruits at 12 °C caused slight chilling injury (CI) symptoms on the fruit peel, expressed as red spots around the lenticels (lenticel spotting). A modified atmosphere (about 5% CO2 and about 10% O2) was created in 4-kg film-lined cartons by using microperforated polyethylene (PE) or Xtend film (XF). For "Keitt" fruit, a similar atmosphere was also applied using controlled atmosphere chambers. After 3 weeks of storage at 12 °C plus 1 week at 20 °C, both modified and controlled atmosphere treatments were effective in reducing CI and the most effective reduction was found in fruits that were packed in the XF film.
