Rosa hybrida L. is an important commercial cut flower. Salicylic acid (SA) and calcium chloride (CaCl2) act as endogenous signal molecules responsible for growth parameters in plants. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of preharvest SA and CaCl2 treatments in extending the vase life of cut rose flowers. Therefore, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with ...

this research was conducted to evaluate the effects of 1-mcp and ethylene on extending the display quality and increasing vase life of cut carnation flowers in a completely randomized design with three replicationsat the laboratory of the postharvest physiology, tarbiat modares universityin 2014. first, cut flowers were treated with 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 µl l-1 of 1-mcp for 24 h and then exposed to...
