Effect of thiabendazole and warm water applications on postharvest response of passion fruit.

Fruits of passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa), grown in the town of Taquaritinga, Sao Paulo, Brazil, and harvested in the plant with 40 to 50% of their peel showing a yellow colour, were subjected to the application of thiabendazole and/or thermal treatment (water at 47 deg C) to study their postharvest response during the storage for 15 days under environmental conditions (24 plus or minus 4 deg C, 60 plus or minus 3% RH). The thermal treatment decreased the incidence of rotting in a similar way when applied in combination with thiabendazole (1000 mg litre-1). This warm water treatment negatively affected the appearance, but increased the juice content. The thermal treatment and thiabendazole had very little effect on the physical-chemical characteristics of the fruits.
