We evaluated the effects of 23 insecticides and 9 fungicides on mite Neoseiulus barkeri（Hughes）collected from melon gerbera greenhouses. The nitenpyram, acetamiprid, flufenoxuron, chlorantraniliprole, pyridalyl, acequinocyl, cyenopyrafen, cyflumetofen, pyflubumide, fungicide flutianil＋mepanipyrim had no effect survival fecundity adult females. In contrast, spinosad, spinetoram, abamectin, emame...

Gerbera anandria (Compositae) was extracted with 75% ethanol and the residue was fractionated using light petroleum, chloroform and ethyl acetate. The constituents of the extracts were separated by column chromatography employing solvents of different polarity. Column chromatography of the light petroleum fraction resulted in the isolation of methyl hexadecanoate, while the chloroform fraction ...

gerbera one of 10 important cut flowers in the world and iran. one of the most problems is low-life after harvest and neck bending. producers want to increase longevity of these flowers with using chemical solutions. with the aim of achieving the best chemical treatments to increase flower vase life gerbera goodtimming, nano silver (5 mg l-1), humic acid (50 mg l-1), gibberellic acid (2.5 mg l-...

This research was conducted to investigate the effects of peppermint (Mentha piperita) essence treatment (2000 mg L-1) and cola soft drink treatment separately and in combination with each other on the vase life and some physiological characteristics of gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii) cut flowers with factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design with 3 replications. Distilled water used ...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different silicon supplements and postharvest treatments on growth and yield of gerbera in a greenhouse experiment. Silicon supplements were including potassium silicate at three concentrations (0, 140 and 200 mg L−1), sodium silicate at three concentrations (0, 50 and 100 mg L−1) and rice hull ash (RHA) at three concentrations (0, 50 and 1...
