Effect of Pre-Treated Chemicals on Keeping Quality and Vase Life of Cut Rose (Rosa hybrida cv.‘ Yellow Island’)
Authors
Abstract:
Nanosilver of nanometer-sized silver (Ag+) particles (2-5 nm diam) are used in various applications as an anti-microbial. Boric acid (H3BO3) is water soluble (pH=7). Boric acid is ethylene synthese inhibitor and reduce ethylene production through reducing the ACC synthase and ACC oxidase delays senescence of flower. In this study of different concentrations of boric acid and nano-silver was evaluated and vase life, fresh weight loss, flower opening index and the number of bacteria in preservative solution were measured. The highest cut rose flower ‘Yellow Island’ longevity was obtained in pulse-treated flowers with 100 mg l-1 boric acid (4 days).

To evaluate the effect of nanosilver (5, 10 and 20 mg l-1), hydrogen peroxide (200, 400 and 600 µM) and Nanosil (200, 400 and 600 µM) as antimicrobial compounds in vase solution of cut rose cv. ‘Grand Press Angela’ flowers, an experiment with 10 treatments and 3 replications was conducted in a completely randomized design. Cut rose flowers were continuously treated with these compounds. The res...

Light intensity is considered a limiting factor in greenhouse rose production. The main aim of this experiment was to evaluate the effect of shading treatments (0, 25, 50, and 65% shading) on quality and chlorophyll content of cut rose (Rosa hybrida cv. Avalanche), under greenhouse conditions. The experiment was planned in randomized completely block design with four replications. All shoots we...

Alstroemeria is one of the most beautiful flowers in the family Alstroemeriaceae. One of the major problems of this cut flower is short life of leaves, this fact reduces the economic value of this cut flower. Abscission of petal before wilting is also considered as one of the most important problems of this flower. Petals of this flower are very sensitive to ethylene. A factorial experiment bas...

The experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of different concentrations of salicylic acid (SA), malic acid ( MA), citric acid (CA) and sucrose (Suc) on keeping quality and vase life of Chrysanthemum cut flowers. In this study three levels of malic acid (0, 100 and 150 mg l ) and salicylic acid (0, 1.5 and 3 mM) and two levels of sucrose (0 and 3% w/v) and of citric acid (0 and 150 ...
