P. D. Patel, A. D. Patel

Abstract :

 Effects of different growth regulators, chemical and wax coating on ripening of sapota at ambient temperature were studied. Sapota fruits were dipped in GA3 @ 100, 200 ppm, NAA @100, 200 ppm and AgNO3 @20, 40 ppm and then coated with wax 3 and 6 % under different treatment combinations. Observation was recorded at 6th, 9th, 12th and 15th days of storage period. Maximum shelf–life (9.17 days) was recorded with GA3 200 ppm and coating of fruits with wax 6 %(7.92 %).
