The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of Nano-silver (NS), calcium chloride (CaCl2) and their combinations on Gerbera jamesonii ‘Carambole’ cut flowers. The experiment was conducted as a completely randomized design (CRD) with 10 treatments and four replications, with three flowers in each replication. Treatments consisted of 5 mg L-1 NS, 1% and 2% CaCl2, 5 mg L-1 NS+ 1% CaCl2, ...

In this study, silver nanoparticles effects on the sterilization of different sources explants (young leaves, young flower stalks and buds) Gerbera as well in vitro morphogenesis their growth were investigated. The sterilized cut transversally (1 mm) with stalk, square (0.5 × 0.5 cm) for leaf sample, longitudinally flowers (removed petals) cultured MS medium; then, (contamination-free or no bro...
