the vase life of cut flowers prolong by some compounds, which can improve their hormonal regulation and water relations or reduce microbial growth in xylem tissu. the effect of chemical treatments on vase life longevity of rose 'ilona'. a randomized complete block design with three replications conducted with following the treatments of control, sts , nickel sulfate, cobalt chloride, ...

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...

the aim of this research was to improve quality and vase life of cut gladiolus flowers. the investigation was done with the effects of different concentrations of essential oil of thymol and zataria oil (50 and 100 mg l-1) and silver nanoparticles (3 and 5 mg l-1) and 8-hydroxyquinolin sulfate (300 and 400 mg l-1) with sucrose 3%. in addition, distilled water, ethanol 500 mgl-1 and sucrose 3% w...

the effects of salicylic acid (sa) and putrescine (put), on cut narcissus was studied. sa (0, 100 and 200 mg l-1) and put (0, 150 and 300 mg l-1), their combinations were tested as preservative mixture. this study was conducted in a factorial experiment with complete randomized design on 108 narcissus cut flowers in horticulture laboratory of agriculture faculty of islamic azad university, jiro...

Salicylic acid (SA) is considered to be plant signal molecule that plays a key role in plant growth, development, and defense responses. The physiological mechanism of exogenous SA to affect the senescence of cut lisianthus flowers during vase life was investigated. Fresh cut lisianthus flowers were treated with distilled water (control), 0.5, 1 and 2 mM SA and then held at 25◦C up to 12 days. ...

the anti-senescence biogenic polyamines (pas) putrescine (put), spermidine (spd) and spermine (spm) are involved in plant growth processes and responses to stress. the physiological mechanism of exogenous put to affect the senescence of cut lisianthus flowers during vase life was investigated. fresh cut lisianthus flowers were treated with distilled water (control), 0.5, 1 and 2 mm put and then...

The anti-senescence biogenic polyamines (PAs) putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd) and spermine (Spm) are involved in plant growth processes and responses to stress. The physiological mechanism of exogenous Put to affect the senescence of cut lisianthus flowers during vase life was investigated. Fresh cut lisianthus flowers were treated with distilled water (control), 0.5, 1 and 2 mM Put and then...

several plant growth regulators are used to improve the quality of cut flower in bulb plants, but their effectiveness depends on genotype and plant growth conditions such as nutrition status. a pot experiment was conducted under farm condition to study benzyl adenine (ba) and potassium nitrate interaction on floret diameter, stem diameter, flower height, flower number per bulb, fresh and dry we...
