abstract chemical components of narcissus (narcissus tazetta l.) essential oil investigated under farming and natural habitat conditions in south khorasan province. the essential oil was obtained using solvent extraction method. after purification, the oil was analyzed by capillary gc and gc/ms. 12 compnents making 82/82% of total oil in farm sample and 13 components making 63/86% of total oil ...

Narcissus is one of the very popular flowers among Iranians. This flower has a short life. To investigate the increasing of vase life of cut Narcissus, sour orange fruit extract in concentrations of 2.5, 4, 5.5 and 7 ml L-1 and sucrose in concentrations of 3, 4, 5 and 6% were used. In addition, distilled water was used as a control treatment. In this experiment, characters of vase life and perc...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Seeds of the moist temperate woodland species Galanthus nivalis and Narcissus pseudonarcissus, dispersed during spring or early summer, germinated poorly in laboratory tests. Seed development and maturation were studied to better understand the progression from developmental to germinable mode in order to improve seed collection and germination practices in these and similar...

The effects of pulse treatment with gibberellin A3 (GA3), silveT thiosulfate complex (STS), and with or without sucrose on chlorophyll degTadation and vase life of cut flowers of Narcissus tazetta var. chinensis were investigated. The 20-hr pulsing treatment with STS extended the vase life of cut fiowers of IVL tazetta var. chinensis, Pulse treatments with GA3 delayed degradation of chlorophyll...

Placement of a scatter cone at the center of the secondary of a Cassegrain telescope greatly reduces Nareissus reflection. To calculate the remaining Narcissus reflection, a time-consuming physical optics code/such as GRASP8 is often used to model the effects of reflection and diffraction. Fortunately, the Cassegrain geometry is sufficiently simple that a combination of theoretical analysis and...
