Haden mangoes were dipped in benomyl (1 g/litre) or benzalkonium chloridebenzalkonium chloride (2 g/litre), with or without Clean Wax (an emulsion containing 18.5 to 20.5% of carnauba wax and acrylic resins mixture) and stored at 13 plus or minus 1 deg C and 80-90% RH for 21 days. Partial ripening occurred during storage. Waxing increased the general appearance of the fruits, mainly by maintaining them more turgid. Both fungicides controlled anthracnose [Glomerella cingulata] development during storage.
