Postharvest Life of Cut Gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii) as Affected by Nano-silver Particles and Calcium Chloride
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of Nano-silver (NS), calcium chloride (CaCl2) and their combinations on Gerbera jamesonii ‘Carambole’ cut flowers. The experiment was conducted as a completely randomized design (CRD) with 10 treatments and four replications, with three flowers in each replication. Treatments consisted of 5 mg L-1 NS, 1% and 2% CaCl2, 5 mg L-1 NS+ 1% CaCl2, ...
متن کاملPostharvest Handling of Cut Campanula medium Flowers
Various postharvest treatments were evaluated for effect on longevity and quality of cut Campanula medium L. ‘Champion Blue’ and ‘Champion Pink’ stems. Stems stored at 2 °C either wet or dry had no difference in vase life or percent flowers opened; however, flowers stored dry had a slightly greater percentage of senesced flowers at termination. Increasing storage duration from 1 to 3 weeks decr...
متن کاملPostharvest Biology and Technology of Cut Flowers and Potted Plants
The relatively brief postharvest life of most cut flowers and potted flowering plants can be extended by a range of technologies. Studies have shown that vase life is negatively correlated with respiration after harvest, so prompt cooling to the lowest safe storage temperature is a key to long-distance transport of these perishable crops. Forced air cooling is the method of choice for cut flowe...
متن کاملSenescence and Postharvest Studies of Cut Flowers: A Critical Review
Flower senescence is the terminal phase of developmental processes that leads to the end of its life span. Since a number of developing countries are attracted to this global fresh flower trade for commercial purpose, this phenomenon is major obstacle for all the floricultural industries. Therefore, research related to postharvest changes was carried out to mitigate this problem. The post-harve...
متن کاملComparison of the application of postharvest treatment of ethanol to improve the longevity of cut flowers in two cultivars of gerbera
Gerbera is an important commercial cut flower that its vase life is usually short due to vascular occlusion. In this study, we assessed the effect of ethanol (2%) in prolonging the vase life, fresh weight, relative water uptake and some physiological and biochemical factors in the stem of two cultivars of gerbera cut flowers (‘Bayadère’ and ‘Sunway’). Ethanol extended the vase life of cut flowe...
