Assessment of post-harvest losses in Nagpur mandarin - a pathological perspective.

ABSTRACT

Surveys in several districts of Maharashtra, India, during 1988-90 indicated that 43 and 47% of the total losses of mandarins in truck and train transport, respectively, were due to postharvest diseases. Stem end rot (Botryodiplodia theobromae), Colletotrichum gloeosporioides [Glomerella cingulata] and occasionally Alternaria citri and Phomopsis [Diaporthe] citri contributed to 21-26% of losses, while Geotrichum candidum (13-15%), Penicillium digitatum and P. italicum (1-4%) were also involved. Factors involved in the high losses are described and measures suggested for reducing the wastage of this valuable crop.
