Abstract
Even under conditions considered to be optimum for maintaining fruit quality, oranges and lemons which are not treated with fungicides may develop 25–50% decay during extended periods of storage. Under unfavourable conditions commonly occurring in many tropical countries, wastage is certainly no less. Such losses can be significantly reduced by low temperature storage and chemical treatment, but resistance to fungicides emphasizes a need for further research in this area.
