چکیده

In order to evaluate low temperature tolerance of five variable somaclones as well as the cv. Peter Pears of gladiolus (Gladiolus grandiflorus Hort.) from which they were originated, catalase (CAT) activity and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) level were measured. Before carrying out the analyses, vitroplants of these clones were exposed, during 21 days, to 8 8C temperature. In response to the stress generated by this low temperature, catalase (CAT) activity revealed on native gel and quantified by spectrophotometry, showed variable levels, being all of them higher compared to cultivar control. For these clones, strong CAT activities were always accompanied by low H2O2 levels. Thus, at low temperatures the antioxidants system of adapted clones is more active compared to control. # 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Gladiolus is an important marketable cut flower, especially valued for use in floral arrangements. We assessed the effects of two different methods of application (foliar spray and drench) and various concentrations of gibberellic acid (GA3), salicylic acid (SA), mival (MI) and krizatcin (KR) on vegetative and reproductive features of Gladiolus hybridus. The experiment was planned in a factoria...
