Plant species were collected in the botanical-geographic regions of Lankaran-Mughan and Lankaran lowland located on sou­thern part Caspian coast. During ecological-geobotanical studies we conducted southern coast, obtained information about morphological features systematic taxa wild flora Lankaran-Mugan botanical-geographical regions. In this article describe ecology distribution Dianthus cyri...

Carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) is valuable in terms of production and exports in the world. Increased vase life of cut flowers is an important factor for their market acceptability. For this purpose this study was carried out to examine the effect of plant essential oils as compared to 8-hydroxy-quinoline sulfate on the control of bacteria population and the longevity of carnation cut flo...

A bstr act. Simplified but highly reproducible extraction and electrophoretic procedures have been developed for plant stem and leaf proteins using recent chemical and technical advances. The method is applied 'to the separation of the basic, water-soluble proteins found in stem and leaf tissues of 3 Dianthus clones. While most of the highly reproducible protein bands appear in all 3 selections...

Four different type 1 ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) with RNA N-glycosidase activity were tested for their ability to attack the large rRNA of plant ribosomes derived from tobacco plants, as well as from the plant species from which the particular RIP had been isolated. Incubation of tobacco ribosomes with RIPs isolated from either Phytolacca americana L. (pokeweed), Dianthus barbatus L....

Most important breeding goals in ornamental crops are plant appearance and flower characteristics where selection is visually performed on direct offspring of crossings. We developed an image analysis toolbox for the acquisition of flower and petal images from cultivated carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) that was validated by a detailed analysis of flower and petal size and shape in 78 comme...

The carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus) is one of the top-selling commercial cut-flower crops worldwide, which is very susceptible to infections. Micro propagation is an advanced biotechnological system for producing free of pathogen colonies. Too many factors may limit micro propagation of plants, which the most important of them is contamination (e.g., fungal, bacterial and viral infections). T...

Carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) is an important flower crop, having substantial commercial value as a cut-flower due to the long vase-life and wide array of flower colors and forms. Standard carnation varieties perform well under cool climates but are very susceptible to high temperatures which adversely affect the yield and the quality of the cut-flowers. Despite several studies of carnat...

Despite the high biodiversity in Mediterranean region, use of wildflowers from mountain areas urban landscaping projects is hampered by limited information on their seed germination performances. This research evaluated traits 14 native herbaceous wildflower species northern west Italian alpine and subalpine areas. Seed Petri dishes at 25 °C was performed, applying two different photoperiod con...
