The grapes.in general have a short post-harvest life and deteriorate rapidly and trails were undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of regulators.The regulators B-9(1000 ppm).Cycocel(2000 ppm.).Phosfon-D (500 ppm.)MH(500 ppm.)and TBA (500 ppm.)were employed to study the influence on the storage of Anab-e-Shahi berris.The first spraying was given during prebloom period.a second application at full bloom and a third spraying when the berris were maturing.The bunches were stored under room temperature and in the cold room at 0.C to study the effect of these chemicals on the keeping quality of fruits.
