Flower opening is an event accompanied by morphological changes in petals which include elongation, expansion, and outward-curving. Petal cell growth is a fundamental process that underlies such phenomena, but its molecular mechanism remains largely unknown. Suppression subtractive hybridization was performed between petals during the early elongation period (stage 1) and during the opening per...

carnation (dianthus caryophyllus) can be infected by several viruses that some are specific to carnation flowers. vegetative propagation of carnation, can easily disperse viruses by infectied cuttings. during the year 2007, viral-like symptoms were observed on carnation in mahallat greenhouses. 142 suspected samples from glass houses, with symptoms of reddish- purple flecks and spots on leaves,...

Abstract This study was carried out in the laboratory of Shangqiu Institute Technology, Henan to investigate effect a different combination inorganic salt on quality and physiological characteristics cut flowers (CFs) Perpetual Carnation. Furthermore, find best preservation solution that can enhance ornamental value CFs Carnation prolong its vase life. Sucrose, 8-hydroxyquinoline, paclobutrazol...

The complete nucleotide sequence of carnation mottle genomic RNA (4003 nucleotides) is presented. The sequence was determined for cloned cDNA copies of viral RNA containing over 99% of the sequence and was completed by direct sequence analysis of RNA and cDNA transcripts. The sequence contains two long open reading frames which together can account for observed translation products. One transla...
