چکیده

Hybrid lilies are excellent cut flowers due to the availability of flowers with various colors and shapes. Extensive inter-species hybridization has resulted in numerous cultivars, and many new cultivars are introduced to the market each year. While the vigor and reliability of the crop has improved over the years, what has not changed is that the postharvest quality of the cut stem is an important aspect that determines the successful use of this crop as a cut flower.

Controlling Botrytis elliptica Leaf Blight on Hybrid Lilies through the Application of Convergent Chemical X-ray Irradiation

X-ray irradiation with convergent chemicals such as nano-silver particles or sodium dichloroisocyanurate (NaDCC) has been used to control leaf blight on cut lilies. The oriental hybrid lily cultivars Siberia, Le Reve, and Sorbonne were irradiated five times by 200 Gy of X-rays in 2014. In 2015, Siberia and Sorbonne were irradiated three times by 150 Gy of X-rays. After artificial infection with...

Interaction of 1-Methylcyclopropene and Thidiazuron on Cut Stock Flowers Vase Life

Leaf yellowing or petal senescence is the main postharvest disorder for many cut flowers. Plant hormones such as cytokinins are able to inhibit leaf yellowing in some cut flowers and potted plants. In our experiments, we applied thidiazuron aiming to delay leaf yellowing and 1-methylciclopropene (1-MCP) for inhibiting flower senescence of cut stock flowers during vase life. Cut flowers were pul...

Postharvest 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...
