Cycad is one of the most important cut foliage plants with several usages. This experiment was focused on increasing the vase life of Cycad’s cut foliage in normal storage condition. Experiment was based on a CRD with three replications. Treatments were conducted for four different levels of gibberellic acid (GA3) and benzyl adenine (BA) each one with 0, 50, 100 and 150 mg L-1, according to men...

ABSTRACT- Heat stress causes flower and fruit abscission in pepper. This study was conducted in the greenhouses of Isfahan University of Technology to evaluate the effect of foliar application of Benzyl adenine (BA) and potassium silicate (K2SiO3) under heat stress condition on bell pepper. Two factorial experiments based on completely randomized design with four concentrations of BA (0, 0.06, ...

The marketability of cut flowers relies on its postharvest longevity, making it crucial to develop technologies that canextend vase life. life in chrysanthemum is dependent upon floret senescence and leaf yellowing. In view ofextending the life, present study elucidates implication plant growth regulators viz. benzyl adenine (BA),thidiazuron (TDZ) salicylic acid (SA) performance flower longevit...

Establishment of efficient protocol for the induction of somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration from embryonic axes explants was achieved in Glycine max (L.) Merr. Highest frequency (92.9%) of embryogenic callus formation was obtained from embryonic axes explants of cv. CO-1 on MS media containing 2,4-Dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) and 6-benzyl adenine (BA). Fast growing, yellowish n...

In an experiment, six levels of benzyl adenine (0.2.5,5.0,7.5,lO.0,12.5 and 15.0 mg/I) in combination with three levels of (CCC) chloro choline chloride (0,125,250 and 500 mg/I) were evaluated against control treatment (0) in each case to find out their optimum levels for microtuberization in potato variety Diarnant. Microtuberization was the earliest by I 3 days at 10 mg/I BA. The number and a...

The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the level of salt toxicity on four novel chickpea genotypes (BG 372, BG 1105, BG 2019 and BG 2024) under in vitro condition for percentage seed germination and morphogenesis. All the four genotypes were exposed to different concentrations (0, 1, 50, 100 and 150 mM) of NaCl in the Murashige & Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with or without ben...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of different levels of salinity stress and sprayed of the 6-benzylaminopurine (benzyl adenine) on morphological and biochemical characteristics of winter jasmine. Therefore, an experiment was conducted in 2016-2017 growing seasons in research center of greenhouse production of Islamic Azad University, Isfahan (Khorasgan) Branch. The experime...

field trials with dizigotheeca elegantissima were conducted at the experimental farm of faculty of agriculture, azad university  jiroft  in growth seasons of 2012 year. the aim of this work was to study the effect of foliar application of gibberellic acid [ga3] and benzyladenine [ba] at 0, 50, 100 and 150 mgl-1 on the vegetative growth and photosynthetic pigments of d. elegantissima plants. mos...

a study was conducted to determine the optimum concentration of benzyladenie (ba) and gibberllic acid (ga3) to break the dormancy of gladiolus corms in relation to storage period and to find out the effect of ba and ga3 on growth and development of gladiolus corm and cormels. the effect of ga3 on dormancy breaking was most pronounced in the 100 ppm treatment being 26.93 days while in the water ...
