A book entitled "Ripening behaviour and quality of mango influenced by temperature" is written in a simple language useful for researchers, teachers as well as post graduate and undergraduate students, programmers in the field of horticulture and post harvest management. The book cover main objective, effect of temperature on physiological loss in weight, ripening behaviour and quality of Alphonso mango fruits. The book has been divided in two parts. The result part I deal with physiological changes during ripening and part II deals with the change in chemical composition during ripening of...

The attempt has been made to develop the suitable quick freezing technique for Alphonso mango slices. Due to abundant production Alphonso mango during season major produce get lost due to improper preservation technique so to avoid the losses and available during off season for further product preparation like icecream, sweet dessert, yogurts etc. need to focus on simple, easy and quick freezing done using liquid nitrogen. Present study standardize period of immersion in liquid nitrogen for uniform freezing of slices. The product was subjected to organoleptic evaluation, physicochemical and...

A book useful for the teachers and students of post harvest technology and management and a guide for extension worker. Beside, information on quality characteristics of mango for processing, quality control, industries, colours, flavours, etc. has been dealt with. Each chapter gives theoretical information to understand the basic methodology. The book contains 5 chapters and literature cited in text and 2 appendices.
