Water stress is one of the main factors of severe damage and limitation of plant production in Iran. The paper reports a pot experiment conducted by using a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with three replications (each replication composed of four pots) to compare the physiological and biochemical characteristics of two varieties of tuberose (double- and single-flow...

Tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.) is one of the most important cut flowers in Iran. This research was conducted to investigate the effects of spraying a mixture of amino acids on the physiological and morphological characteristics of tuberose. The experiment was carried out in two successive years (2009 and 2010) using two tuberose cultivars ‘Dezfuli’ and ‘Mahallati’. The experiment was arrange...

abstract tuberose is one of the most important cut flowers in iran and the world. in this experiment, effect of microelements fe, zn, cu and mn on inflorescence length, inflorescence bunch length, number and diameter of floret, diameter of inflorescence bunch and vase life of tuberose flowers were studied. this study was based on four separate completely randomized experimental design with four...

the aim of this research was to improve postharvest quality and vase life of tuberose cut flowers. treatments in this experiment included: distilled water, 3% ethanol and 5% sucrose as control, thyme oil in 3 levels (50, 75 and 100 mg/l), accel in 3 level (25, 50 and 75 mg/l) and for some of flowers pulsing with 5% sucrose in first 24 hours then puting cut flowers treated with sucrose in thyme ...

tuberose is one of the most important floral crops in iran. long spikes of fragrant flowers make it excellent for cut flower. due to the beauty and sweet fragrance of flowers, it used in all seasons for flower arrangements. production of high quality flowers and vase life extension is important for competition in world markets. for this reason this research was conducted on polianthes tuberosa ...

in order to identify the plant parasitic nematodes associated with polianthes tuberosa in dezful regions, iran, 300 soil and root samples were collected from different parts of the region, during 2012-2014. the samples were washed and the nematodes were extracted by centrifugal flotation technique. the nematodes were fixed and transferred to glycerin, and then the permanent slides of the nemato...
