tuberose (polianthus tuberosa) is a commercially important cut flower; but its longevity and quality characteristics are compromised by stress during storage and transportation. thus, it is important to determine the most appropriate preservative solution to best maintained cut flowers. tests were done to examine the effects on of nano-silver (ns) (0, 15, 30 and 45 mg l-1) and sucrose (0, 4 and...

conclusions our results demonstrated that mi, combined with the implementation of intention intervention, increased weight loss and pmt construct scores in our study population. results in the two intervention groups, the pmt construct scores, namely susceptibility (p = 0.001), severity (p = 0.001), rewards (p =0.004), self-efficacy (p = 0.001), response efficacy (p = 0.001), and costs (p = 0.0...

abstract for evaluation and identification some of the chamomile species in two genera anthemis and matricaria, morphological and phonological characteristics were used. the experiment was conducted in a randomized completely blocks design (rcbd) with three replicates, sixteen quantitative and qualitative traits were evaluated such as plant height, anthodium diameter, receptacle diameter, ligul...

Insect floral herbivory can dramatically reduce plant reproductive success. Thus, plants should have evolved mechanisms that minimize the effect of insect herbivores, particularly in monocarpic species that must maximize fitness in a single flowering year. Tolerance is one such mechanism; however, few experiments to date evaluate underlying mechanisms of plant tolerance under natural conditions...
