Abstract
Changes in peroxidase (POD), polyphenoloxidase (PPO) and phenylalanine ammonialyase (PAL) activities during ripening of mango fruits (Mangifera indica L.) cv.
Tommy Atkins, were measured.
Samples were divided into 3 groups : F1= half of healthy fruit; F2 = healthy half of fruit affected by spongy tissue and F3 = spongy tissue-affected half of fruit with disorder.
The fruit with spongy tissue has exhibited much higher POD end PPO activities than healthy fruit during storage at 12 ± 2°C and 90± 5% RH for 28 days.
