The abscission of Alstroemeria petals is the serious problem at the industry of cut flowers of this plant. In this study, cut Alstroemeria cv. Bridal flowers were pulsed with solutions containing natural essential oil carvacrol, gibberellic acid and benzyladenine (50 and 100 mg L-1), -5-sulfosalicylic acid (1 and 1.5 mM) and sucrose (5 and 10%) for 24 hours. The distilled water was used as cont...

The rose is a leader in the cultivation of cut crops, decorativeness which beyond doubt. Increasing attractiveness bouquet flowers priority task modern industrial floriculture. A number plant growth regulators can significantly improve decorative qualities flower-cutting products. During research, it was proved that immunomodulatory with protective functions increased valuable and economic prop...

Effect of salicylic acid combined with glutamin on rose (Rosa Baccara) cut flowers was studied. The study was conducted in a factorial arrangement, carried out in a complete randomized design. The factors were Salicylic acid (0,1, 2 and 4 mM) and glutamin (0, 1.5 and 3 mM).The effects of treatments on the total chlorophyll content, ACC-Oxidase activity, anthocyanin leakage, membrane stability a...

Alstromeria has beautiful flowers that is popular in the world. One of the most problem in commercial of this flower is ethylene sensitivity and bacterial contamination in stem end of cut flowers. In this experiment, effect of essential oils of bitter orange (0, 25 and 50 mg l-1) and lawson cypress (0, 100 and 200 mg l-1) and nonchemical treatment (with and without) with 18 treatments, 3 replic...

lisianthus (eustoma grandiflorum cv. ‘mriachii blue’) is one of the most important and marketable cut flowers in the world. however, a relatively limited vase life reduces its marketability. the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of essential oils in extending vase life of cut flowers of lisianthus. for this purpose a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized desig...

several plant growth regulators are used to improve the quality of cut flower in bulb plants, but their effectiveness depends on genotype and plant growth conditions such as nutrition status. a pot experiment was conducted under farm condition to study benzyl adenine (ba) and potassium nitrate interaction on floret diameter, stem diameter, flower height, flower number per bulb, fresh and dry we...

chrysanthemum (dendranthema grandiflorum (ramat.) kitamura cv. pattriot) is one of the most important and marketable cut flowers in the world. however, a relatively limited vase life reduces its marketability. the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of salicylic acid (sa) and citric acid (ca) in extending the vase life of chrysanthemum flowers. therefore, a factorial experiment based...
