in order to study the morphological characteristics affecting yield of echium amoenum under different nutritional treatments and different plant densities, a factorial experiment based on rcbd design with three replications was conducted at agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran in 2011-2013 growing seasons. the experimental treatments were all combination of three ...

A study was conducted to standardize production and postharvest handling of lily (Lilium longifolium L. cv. Mero Star). In production trial, three plant densities viz.10, 20 and 30 cm between plants in 60 cm spaced rows and two planting depths viz.7.5 and 15 cm were compared. Increased plant growth, yield and quality was recorded when plants were grown at a close spacing of 10 cm with 15 cm pla...

In this study, the effects of three different bacterial isolates added to vase solution on life were investigated. All significantly increased gerbera cut flowers. While flowers in control was 3 days, period reached up 11 days kept containing bacteria. Daily water uptake decreased with increasing time all treatments. Although there some differences between treatments terms daily uptake, it has ...

crisis due to global warming and its associated damaging consequences, including salinity, it is essential to develop plant resistance to salinity level. in this study, an experiment was conducted using different levels of salinity (0.05, 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2% sodium chloride) had on rosa hybrida, as the most important cut flowers in the world. results showed that by increasing of salinity, sodium...

the aim of this study was the better assessment of the relationship of pulsing treatment of gibberellic acid as an anti-senescence agent and holding in sucrose as a carbohydrate supply resource on improving some qualitative and physiological attributes of cut rose flower cv. velvet. hence, an experiment involving the pulsing treatment with gibberllic acid (ga3) at 0, 20, 40 and 60 mg l-1, for 2...

the effect of plant growth regulator short time treatments ( ga3 and tdz) on the increase of vase life and qualitative traits of alstroemeria cultivars ‘odessa’ and ‘sacramento’ were investigated. cut flowers were treated with 24h pulse treatments which included different concentrations of ga3 and tdz. cut flowers were later held in preservative solution (sucrose 2% +nanosid 2ppm) and then thei...

To study the effect of different concentrations of potassium in thenutrient solution and water stress on the quality and quantity yield of Lilium LA cv.Termoli, a pot experiment was conducted based on completely randomized design in sand and perlite medium (50:50) in three levels of potassium (Kfree, 6 mM K and and 12 mM K in Hoagland solution) with three replications. In the present study, the...
