Effect of Paclobutrazol and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) Application on Rose (Rosa hybrida L.)

The Role of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) in Improving the Postharvest Quality of Some Cut Rose Cultivars

In order to improve the postharvest quality and the export ability of cut rose (Rosa hybrida L.) cvs. Happy Hour and Bordeaux, the effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) as an ethylene inhibitor, was investigated. 1-MCP was used at 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6 g m-3 for 18 h at 8 °C to simulate the transport of flowers. 1-MCP treatment significantly prolonged the vase life and minimized the weight los...

Effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) on softening of fresh-cut kiwifruit, mango and persimmon slices

Ethylene production is enhanced by wounding during fresh-cut processing and the accumulation of this gas within the packages of fresh-cut ruit can be detrimental to their quality and shelf-life. The effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), an ethylene action blocker, applied before r after processing, on the quality of fresh-cut kiwifruit, mangoes and persimmons was evaluated during storage at 5...

The Biology and Ecology of Rosa x hybrida (Rose)

effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-mcp) and ethylene on physiological characteristics and antioxidant activities of cut carnation cv. ‘grand slam’

this research was conducted to evaluate the effects of 1-mcp and ethylene on extending the display quality and increasing vase life of cut carnation flowers in a completely randomized design with three replicationsat the laboratory of the postharvest physiology, tarbiat modares universityin 2014. first, cut flowers were treated with 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 µl l-1 of 1-mcp for 24 h and then exposed to...

A coupled model of photosynthesis, stomatal conductance and transpiration for a rose leaf (Rosa hybrida L.).

The following three models were combined to predict simultaneously photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, transpiration and leaf temperature of a rose leaf: the biochemical model of photosynthesis of Farquhar, von Caemmerer and Berry (1980, Planta 149: 78-90), the stomatal conductance model of Ball, Woodrow and Berry (In: Biggens J, ed. Progress in photosynthesis research. The Netherlands: Marti...
