abstract in order to investigate the effect of biofertilizer, chemical fertilizer and plant density on yield and corm criteria of saffron, an experiment was conducted as complete randomized block design in a factorial arrangement with three replications under field condition in agricultural college, ferdowsi university of mashhad during 3 years of 2007,2008,2009. treatments included nitroxin bi...

tuberose (polianthes tuberosa l.) is an important commercial cut flower that has a short vase life. an experiment was carried out by using five different levels of humic acid (ha) (0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 mg l-1) and seven different levels of silver nano-particles (snp) (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 mg l-1) mixed with 1.5% sucrose on cut tuberosa cv. single flower. the loss of fresh weight on third ...

throughout the present study some vegetative and reproductive characteristics of rosa damascene fewer than three different irrigation regimes (100, 70 and 40% of potential evapotranspiration) through an application of surface vs subsurface drip irrigation systems were investigated. some morphological characteristics investigated, included the number of branches per plant, shading diameter, plan...

this study was carried out to investigate flower yield and yield components in iranian rosa damascena using 20 genotypes, collected from different regions of iran and grown in drylands and deserts research station of kashan, iran, using a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2007-2008. flower yield per plant, number of flowers per plant, plant height, leaf length, width, ...

abstract rosa damascena has attracted considerable attention in horticulture, biochemistry and in pharmacology because of the fragrance of the flowers and the high content of its bio-logically active substances. there is limited information available on factors controlling flower yield and its components. the present study reports an investigation on flower yield and the various factors affect...

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...

Tuberose (Polianthus tuberosa) is a commercially important cut flower; but its longevity and quality characteristics are compromised by stress during storage and transportation. Thus, it is important to determine the most appropriate preservative solution to best maintained cut flowers. Tests were done to examine the effects on of nano-silver (NS) (0, 15, 30 and 45 mg L-1) and sucrose (0, 4 and...

To examine the genetic variation for drought stress in chamomile, eight accessions belonging to four species were evaluated under both field and greenhouse conditions using normal and late season drought stress. In the field experiment drought stress were initiated with irrigation cease at the commencement of flowering time. In greenhouse experiment, irrigation carried out at flower initiation ...
