Work in Hawaii on the postharvest life of mangoes had been limited by lack of sufficient quantity of a selected variety, as there is varietal variation in susceptibility to postharvest disorders. It was suggested that a choice of one, two, or three varieties for commercial purposes was critical to development of a Hawaii mango industry.

Genotypic differences in response to the treatment were noted.

There was discussion of "dwarfing rootstocks," about which a university horticulturist present declared, on the basis of experiments, that "the dwarfing effect of rootstocks has been zero."

Because of these problems, he ventured that the total value of the conference participants' efforts and salaries for the three days of the event exceeded the annual value of commercial mango production in Hawaii.
