the aim of this reaserch was evaluathng the aluminum-sulphate concentration levels in preserved solution with stem recutting on longevity of rosa hybrida cv. varlon cut flowers. the investigation was conducted in horticultural lab,agriculturalcollege,zanjanuniversity. rose cut stems were produced in greenhouse from biennial mother stocks and were placed under the treatment of aluminum-sulphate ...

postharvest senescence is a major factor, limiting the marketing of many species of cut flowers, including roses. considerable efforts have been devoted to developing postharvest treatments to lengthen the extend of the marketing period. the purpose of this study was to determine the most suitable nitric oxide, and thidiazuron concentrations to increase the antioxidant activity as well as prote...

Chrysanthemum cut flower is not sensitive to ethylene and its vase life depends on vascular blockage. In order to evaluating of effect of antibiotics and essential oils on the vase life and quality characteristics of chrysanthemum cut flower an experiment carried out based on a RCD with 10 treatments: Artemisia at 3 levels (10, 30 and 50 %), amoxicillin at 3 levels (100, 200 and 300 mg l-1), Ri...

This work evaluated the effect of drought stress on seedling growth, protein, soluble sugars, and phenolic compounds of two cultivars of canola (RGS003 and Sarigol). Drought stress was induced with polyethylene glycol (PEG) at 0, 5, 10, and 15%. Drought stress increased root fresh weight in both cultivars and the effect of drought was more pronounced in RGS003. Shoot fresh weight reduced in Sar...

seeds deterioration is a natural phenomenon that occurs in all seeds and leading to gradual decline of seed viability during storage. however, the rate at which seeds age depends upon their physiological status, genetic constitution and storage conditions. in the present study we the examined relationship between accumulation of reducing and non-reducing of sugars, soluble protein, the activity...

abstract: edible coatings made from whey protein concentrate (wpc) and gellan gum (g) were investigated for their capacity to preserve the quality of malus domestica cv golab apples. wpc and gellan gum coatings at different concentrations plasticized with glycerol (gly) were tested. postharvest storage quality condition testes included weight loss, color and texture changes, titratable acidity ...

in a pot experiment the effect of water stress on the proteins and proline amino acid content of jam, kurosh, pirooz chickpea cultivars (cicer arientinum) were evaluated using a complete block design with factorial treatments inducing cultivars and watering periods, three, six and nine day intervals in three replications. soluble protein and free proline content of the leaf and the root were me...

stress management is considered as an important factor in nowadays landscape. therefore this research was conducted using a factorial experiment based on a randomized completely design with regulated deficit irrigation at four levels (100, 75, 50, and 25% of lawn irrigation requirement) and three replicates to evaluate some biochemical and physiological traits on four groundcover plants (lolium...
