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 ...

China aster [Callistephus chinensis (L.) Nees] is a flowering annual mainly cultivated for loose flower and cut flower, bedding pot culture. To assess the genetic diversity, 42 genotypes were evaluated fourteen quantitative traits. The found to be highly variable traits such as plant height, spread, stalk length, 100 weight, number of flowers per plant, weight yield hectare. However, low variab...

A research trial was conducted during 2011-2012 to elucidate the effects of humic acid (HA) and NPK to determine the optimum rate against different growth and floral attributes on tulip cultivar viz. ‘Triumph’. The following five treatments T0 : (control), T1: 10 g/m2 NPK (17:17:17), T2 : HA 0.75 ml (8%) + 10 g/m2 NPK (17:17:17), T3: HA 1.00 ml (8%) + 10 g/m2 NPK (17:17:17) and T4: HA 1.25 ml (...

The present investigation was laid out in Completely Randomized design (CRD) with nine treatments and each replicated thrice. treatment T2 i.e., Soil + Sand Perlite Farm yard manure 1:1:1:1) reported significantly better Performance terms of Growth parameters like plant height (60.50 cm), Number leaves per (64.00), spread (27.80 leaf length (7.60 cm); Flowering days to first flower bud appearan...

The present investigation entitled “Effect of plant growth regulators on growth, flowering, yield and vaselife chrysanthemum under Prayagraj agro climatic conditions”, was carried out during August to December, 2022, in Department Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology Sciences, Prayagraj. experiment conducted Randomized Block Design with...

Agave americana is one of commonly grown agave species but currently less valuable because its large flower stalk cannot be used for producing alcoholic beverage. In the present study, the stalk was pretreated with dilute acid (DA), sulfite (SPORL), and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to preliminarily assess its potential as feedstock for bioethanol production. The changes of cell wall components durin...

The present Research was conducted To evaluate the response of lilium by GA3, IAA and Ethrel to analyse growth yield under polyhouse in Prayagraj agro climatic condition. experiment layout Randomized block design (RBD) with 13 treatments each treatment replicated thrice. carried out during November, 2021 February, 2022 Field, Department Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj. consist different concent...

Stevia rebaudiana (Bertoni) Bertoni is a perennial herbaceous plant that produces natural low glycemic-index sweeteners alternative to sugar cane. The genetic improvement of needs be investigated increase its productivity. Although this has narrow diversity, through polyploidization may succeed. Meanwhile, genotypic characters tetraploid were previously reported. This study then observed the ph...

The experiment on “Evaluation of dahlia (Dahlia variabilis L.) genotypes for quality, yield and shelf life” was carried out at the Department Floriculture Landscape Architecture, College Horticulture, Sirsi, University Horticultural Sciences, Bagalkot, Karnataka during year 2018 to 2019 with a view find best life dahlia. genotype HUBD-30 recorded highest individual flower weight (15.33 g), diam...
