the type of training system and application of calcium spray have considerable effects on storability of fruits. in this study, the effects of calcium chloride spray (0, 0.75, 1.5 and 3 g.l-1) in three times during 2, 4 and 6 weeks before harvest time on apple (malus domestica) fruits cvs. ‘gala’ and ‘delbarestival’, which trained in three different training systems (v shape, hightech and cordo...

a pot experiment was carried out to determine the effect of foliage spraying of silicon (si) on growth and ornamental characteristics of calendula grown under salt stress and greenhouse conditions. a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted with 3 levels of si (0, 50 and 100 mg/l) and 3 levels of nacl (0, 100 and 200 mm) with 4 replications. at flowering stage, s...

oxalate soluble pectin (osp) is related to fruit firmness with respect to the chelation of calcium ions with carboxyl groups of adjacent polyuronide chains. this study was carried out to explore the effect of time of fruit harvest, foliar spray with cacl2 during growing season on osp, polygalacturonase activity (pga), fruit firmness and the effects on fruit shelf life, quality and internal ...

A pot experiment was carried out to determine the effect of foliage spraying of silicon (Si) on growth and ornamental characteristics of calendula grown under salt stress and greenhouse conditions. A factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted with 3 levels of Si (0, 50 and 100 mg/l) and 3 levels of NaCl (0, 100 and 200 mM) with 4 replications. At flowering stage, S...
