Mango (Mangifera indica L. cv. Hongxiangya and Wacheng) was chosen to study the effect of postharvest biological characters in different storage conditions. The determining items included respiratory rate, total sugar, vitamin C (Vc) content, firmness, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD). The results showed that both 8 and 11C were the better storage temperatures, and the storage life would last 50 days in this situation. The respiration rate increased quickly between the 16th to the 22nd days; the peak values were the 28th and 25th days at 8C for Hongxiangya and Wacheng, respectively. The flesh firmness decreased dramatically at 6 days after harvest. Total sugar content, Vc content, PPO and POD increased at first and then decreased. The color changed from green to yellow with the increase of carotenoids content. After treatment with thiabendozole and iprodione, the number of rot fruits was markedly lower than the other treatments. The best temperature is 11 and 14C for Hongxiangya and Wacheng, respectively. The rot rate is 6.77 and 8.33% with 1,000-ppm iprodine treatment after 50-days storage.
