The relatively brief postharvest life of most cut flowers and potted flowering plants can be extended by a range of technologies. Studies have shown that vase life is negatively correlated with respiration after harvest, so prompt cooling to the lowest safe storage temperature is a key to long-distance transport of these perishable crops. Forced air cooling is the method of choice for cut flowe...

vegetative propagation of persian walnut encounters a major problem in iran growing conditions. this experiment was carried out to study the physiological effects of rootstock as regards herbaceousness or woodiness, and with respect to the presence of leaf on it or not on minigrafting success. throughout the study, 1.5-2.5 cm length persian walnut scions were minigrafted on herbaceous vs. softw...

The suitability of municipal plant waste for anaerobic digestion was examined using 57 different herbaceous and non-herbaceous samples. Biochemical methane potential (BMP) and anaerobic biodegradability were related to the degree of lignification and crystallinity of cellulose. The BMP of herbaceous garden plants (332.7 CH(4)NL kg VS(-1)) was high, although lower than that of energy crops (400-...

Woody-herbaceous-livestock species interactions have attracted a great deal of research attention due to global land cover changes and increasing livestock production systems around the world. It has been well recognized that many local and regional factors, physical and biological, influence the interaction between woody and herbaceous species. While impacting the dynamics, and tipping the bal...
