Four heat treatments for quarantine control of Caribbean fruit flies (Anastrepha suspensa) in mango (Mangifera indica) did not affect fruit quality but variably controlled two postharvest diseases. Immersion of fruit in water at a constant temperature of 46 C for 90-115 min significantly reduced anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides) on three cultivars by 60-87%. Stem end rot (Diplodia natalensis) also was reduced 61-88% by this treatment
