A study was conducted to standardize production and postharvest handling of lily (Lilium longifolium L. cv. Mero Star). In production trial, three plant densities viz.10, 20 and 30 cm between plants in 60 cm spaced rows and two planting depths viz.7.5 and 15 cm were compared. Increased plant growth, yield and quality was recorded when plants were grown at a close spacing of 10 cm with 15 cm pla...

Abstract Eremurus spectabilis is a new, commercially valuable specialty cut flower, but little known about the applicable treatments to extend vase-life and maintaining ornamental quality of this flower. Therefore, present study was aimed at investigating impacts nano-silver, essential oils, chemical on keeping inflorescences Foxtail lily. The were placed in different vase solutions containing ...

†Background Most angiosperms present flowers in inflorescences, which play roles in reproduction, primarily related to pollination, beyond those served by individual flowers alone. An inflorescence’s overall reproductive contribution depends primarily on the three-dimensional arrangement of the floral canopy and its dynamics during its flowering period. These features depend in turn on characte...

The genus Begonia is greatly affected by abiotic stresses, which lead to losses in greenhouse production and flower longevity. Obtaining more-tolerant plants a very important breeding goal ornamentals. To achieve tolerant Begonia×tuberhybrida, OsmiR393a, miRNA involved the tolerance of was introduced using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Explants were cultured on modified MS medium suppl...

The marketability of cut flowers relies on its postharvest longevity, making it crucial to develop technologies that canextend vase life. life in chrysanthemum is dependent upon floret senescence and leaf yellowing. In view ofextending the life, present study elucidates implication plant growth regulators viz. benzyl adenine (BA),thidiazuron (TDZ) salicylic acid (SA) performance flower longevit...

important cut flowers in tropical and sub tropical areas of the world and has the seventh rate of production between all cut flowers of Iran. In order to investigate different effects of storage temperatures (8 weeks at 4 °C, 4 weeks at 4 °C + 4 weeks at 20 °C, 8 weeks at 12 °C, 4 weeks at 12 °C+ 4 weeks at 20 °C and 8 week at 20 °C) and different concentrations of gibberellic acid (0, 150 and ...

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, ...
