the aim of this reaserch was evaluathng the aluminum-sulphate concentration levels in preserved solution with stem recutting on longevity of rosa hybrida cv. varlon cut flowers. the investigation was conducted in horticultural lab,agriculturalcollege,zanjanuniversity. rose cut stems were produced in greenhouse from biennial mother stocks and were placed under the treatment of aluminum-sulphate ...

In the cut flower market, traditional breeding is still the best way to achieve new rose cultivars. The geographical delocalization of cultivar constitution (generally made in Europe and North America) and plant cultivation (large areas in Africa and South America) represents a limit point for crossing and selection. Rose breeders often need to overcome geographical distances, resulting in asyn...

The effects of sodium chloride (NaCl) salinity (control; canal water with 0.4 dS m-1), 2.5 dSm-1, 5.0 dS m-1, 7.5 dS m-1 and 10.0 dS m-1, respectively) developed after 6 weeks of pruning (beginning of study) on plant growth, flowering and quality of three cut rose (Rosa hybrida L.) cultivars viz. ‘Kardinal’, ‘Angelique’ and ‘Gold Medal’ were studied to achieve better management, quality product...

The effects of various growing substrates, combinations of soil, silt, sand, press mud (PM) and rice hulls (RH) on plant growth, yield and quality of rose (Rosa hybrida L.) cvs. Kardinal, Anjlique and Gold Medal, were studied to standardize substrates for cut rose production and develop better management and quality production protocol. Plant height, number of leaves branch, leaf area, number o...

We propose that mycorrhizal colonization of roots alters nonhydraulic root to shoot communication of soil drying. Split-root rose (Rosa hybrida L. cv Samantha) plants-one side of the root system colonized by Glomus intraradices Schenck & Smith, the other side nonmycorrhizal-displayed different stomatal conductances upon partial drying, depending upon whether mycorrhizal or nonmycorrhizal roots ...

Preharvest conditions, including photoperiod and irrigation regime, affect the keeping quality of long stem roses (Rosa x hybrida). Rose plants cultivar ‘Charming Black’ were subjected to four different treatments investigate how nocturnal supplemental lighting regimes influence post-harvest performance. Vase life, ornamental quality, water balance, petal color, vacuolar pH, soluble sugar conte...
