In the present study, all the treatments of SA and chitosan alone or in combination were found highly effective in minimizing weight loss of litchi fruit compared to control during storage at 4◦C (Fig. 1).Irrespective of treatments, weight loss increased progressively with the advancement of storage period up to 6 days. Among the differ-ent treatments, maximum weight loss (19.80%) was recorded incontrol fruits followed by SA 0.5 mM + chitosan 2% (17.09%) treated fruits. However, fruits treated with SA 1.0 mM in combination with chitosan 2% showed least weight loss (12.39%) at the end of storage.
