narcissus is one of the very popular flowers among iranians. this flower has a short life. to investigate the increasing of vase life of cut narcissus, sour orange fruit extract in concentrations of 2.5, 4, 5.5 and 7 ml l-1 and sucrose in concentrations of 3, 4, 5 and 6% were used. in addition, distilled water was used as a control treatment. in this experiment, characters of vase life and perc...

Experiments were conducted to evaluate the response of different originated (the same mother plants with different growers from different cities in Ethiopia) cut rose flowers to various relative humidity (RH) and recut (recut and non-recut). Three different experiments (E1, E2 and E3) using three RH (60, 75 and 90%) and three Ethiopian growing areas (Fleur, Liki and Longonot) with 10 replicatio...

the tuberose cut flower is much less longevity in postharvest. the less vase life due to stress of deficit carbohydrate and quick respiration on inflorescence. in this study, effectiveness factors, sucrose, cacl2, al2so4 and re-cut the stems. in current research two separate experiments were arranged as a factorial based on compeletly randomized design. the first experiment were added to all ex...

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 ...
