Reviewer 2 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

Comments for authors:

The abstract section is too long, please consider that the abstract should be a total of about 200 words maximum. 

The abstract should be a single paragraph and should follow the style of structured abstracts, but without headings: 

Add the following structure

1) Background: Place the question addressed in a broad context and highlight the purpose of the study

2) Methods: Describe briefly the main methods or treatments applied

3) Results: Summarize the article's main findings; and 

4) Conclusion: Indicate the main conclusions 

 

Keywords: agree with them

 

Lines 67-69: is not clear the idea, please rephrase all the sentences because ripening is induced by the application of ripening substances….

Lines 69-70: add the attribute of quality 

Lines 90-93: the mangoes were selected disease free???? please add this information, it is key for the anthracnose assessment

 

I suggest adding the complete treatments in a table for a better understanding

 

Line 118: symptoms, this word is correct for determining chilling injury??? or this word is used for diseases….

 

Line 120-124: you mention visual observations, but what can you see…. in the fruit, spots??? what color??? wich characteristics, how you did not confuse the spots from anthracnose compared to CI, please explain all these points. And last, please add information about the fungus responsible for this disease and mention if you had an artificial infection or is just a natural infection (quiescent)

 

Figure 1: I suggest cutting each image (individual) to make it larger and for better appreciation

 

Figure 2: the data are complicated to understand, please consider changing the type of the graph or making some changes for a better understanding

 

Figures 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7, 8: same comments, also the letters confuse more 

 

Lines 631-634: add more information about the mechanism of attack by the principal pathogens of this disease, add the names also. 

 

Lines 634-636: which is the effect of the temperature and ethylene on pathogen development in mango

 

Lines 638-639: add information about the effect of ripening in the development of anthracnose

 

The discussion section about the disease is poor, please add the missing information, important how the best treatment reduce the disease incidence

 

Which is the relationship between CI and disease development, please comment

 

The black spots observed in CI could be anthracnose???? comment
