Levels of terpenoids, mangiferin and phenolic acids in the pulp and peel of ripe mango fruit influenced by pre-harvest spray application of FeSO4 (Fe2+), MgSO4 (Mg2+) and MnSO4 (Mn2+)

Fe 2+ , Mg 2+ and Mn 2+ are enzyme cofactors in terpenoids biosynthesis. Effects of pre-harvest spray of FeSO 4 , MgSO 4 and MnSO 4 (0.2% and 0.3%) 30 d prior to harvest on the levels of terpenoids and phenolic compounds in ripe mango fruit were investigated. All treatments significantly increased l...
