Abstract This work aimed to investigate the interaction between salt stress and application of silicon dioxide-nanoparticles. In this study, gerbera plants grown in soilless culture were supplied with nutrient solutions different NaCl concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20 30 mM) combination SiO 2 -NPs spray 25 50 mg · L −1 ). Exposure salinity increased sodium concentration but decreased potassium calci...

Sunflowers are one of the flowers chosen by many localities to grow because they both create beautiful landscapes and also a source raw materials for oil from seeds. This study aims determine planting density amount fertilizers being suitable growing, well-developed, high-yielding in Thua Thien Hue province. Research results shown that fertilization did not significantly affect germination rate...

tuberose aesthetically and commercially is an important flower that its importance is due to its potential for trade of cut flower, long vase life and essential oil industry. it is cultivated commercially by bulbs is needed to their storing properly after the harvest and quiescence to increase yield and flowering quality so that can be regulated flowering time according to market. experiments w...

the drastic decline of precipitation over the past decade along with overuse of chemical inputs and consequent soil fertility reduction are the most important problems in the approach to agricultural expansion, particularly in urban landscaping. therefore, an experiment was designed to examine the effects of different irrigation levels (40, 70 and 100 % of field capacity, or fc) and different v...

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 ...

abstract field experiment was carried out at the ferdowsi university research field, mashhad, iran during 2006-2007, to determine how much effective the n-fertilization is, to find out the most suitable plant density which could be used in chamomile (matricaria chamomilla l. asteraceae) to increase the yield of anthodium flowers and content of essential oil. the experimental design was as two f...

respiration is one of the important factors to be considered in a determination of the quality of cut flowers during their postharvest preservation period. modified atmospheric packaging (map) is an effective way of reducing respiration rate along with increasing vase life while the quality of cut flowers also well maintained. this research was conducted on the basis of a factorial experiment, ...
