TL;DR: In this paper, two types of fruit coatings were tested for their effect on external and internal mango fruit atmospheres and quality factors during simulated commercial storage at 10 or 15°C with 90% RH followed by simulated marketing conditions of 20 °C with 56% RH.

TL;DR: In this article, a combination of optimal controlled and modified atmospheres (CA and MA) for fresh produce is proposed for postharvest handling, where the MAP is designed for a particular commodity that will produce an optimal atmosphere for retail display conditions, and a CA that will interact with the MAP to produce the optimal atmosphere within the packages during transportation at a lower temperature.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted interviews with the owners of three organic lettuce farms in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in southern Brazil using a standardized self-assessment questionnaire to ascertain the status of implementation of good agricultural practices and management systems in place.

TL;DR: The results suggest that properly selected atmospheres can allow TR mangoes to be stored or shipped without sacrificing their superior aroma quality.

TL;DR: In this article, the same authors compared the effect of low O 2 and high CO2 on the epidermal ground color of two mango cultivars, i.e., preclimacteric and climacteric.
