The experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of different concentrations of salicylic acid (SA), malic acid ( MA), citric acid (CA) and sucrose (Suc) on keeping quality and vase life of Chrysanthemum cut flowers. In this study three levels of malic acid (0, 100 and 150 mg l ) and salicylic acid (0, 1.5 and 3 mM) and two levels of sucrose (0 and 3% w/v) and of citric acid (0 and 150 ...

gerbera (gerbereajamesonii) cut flower has magnificent economical value in international cut flower industry. due to sensitivityto ethylene and to gray mold, it has a short postharvest life. in this research, the effects of pulsing treatments with salicylic acid (100 and 200 mg/l) and methyl jasmonate (25 and 50 mg/l) for 24h on quality and vase-life of gerbera cut flower were assessed. distill...

In order to improve the vase life of alstroemeria cut flowers (Alstroemeria aurantiaca), an experiment was performed based on completely randomized design with 10 treatments including cycloheximide (50, 100 and 200 mg l-1), benzyladenine (50, 100 and 200 mg l-1), coconut juice (5, 10 and 20 %) and control (distilled water) in three replications. In this study, characteristics such as vase life,...

In this research, the effects of thidiazuron pulse treatment and salicylic acid were examined to improve vase life and maintain the quality of Alstroemeria ҅Modena҆ cut flowers. The experiment was done in a factorial experiment based on RCD with 16 treatments, 3 replications and 48 plots. The flowers were placed in different concentrations of thidiazuron (0, 10, 20, and 50 μM) and salicylic acid ...

in this research, the effects of pulsing application of preservative solutions containing salicylic acid (100 and 200 mg/l) and methyl jasmonate (25 and 50 mg/l) and long period application of preservative solutions containing thymol (75 and 125 mg/l), menthol (75 and 125 mg/l) and eugenol (50 and 100 mg/l) on the maintain quality and extend vase-life of carnation cut flowers two tests were eva...

gladiolus is one of the flowers that used on cut flower and garden plants. an experiment was conducted to study the effects of chemical treatments on the vase life of gladiolus cut flower cv. ‘rose supreme’ with ten chemical treatment using complete randomize design with 3 replications. gladiolus cut flower was harvested when the 2-3 lowest bud had start showing color then cut flower were treat...

The postharvest vase life of cut roses was studied to determine the effects of various physiological factors that influence the vase life of cut flower. Cut roses were obtained from commercial area of Siliguri. To assess the effect of preservatives on the postharvest life of rose, cut flowers were treated with following preservative solutions: fixed amount of citric acid (CA) (300 mg/ml) and 8-...

We investigated the role of nano-silver (NAg) and the bacterial strain Enterobacter cloacae in increasing the vase life of cut carnation flowers 'Omea.' NAg treatment extended vase life of the flowers by increasing relative fresh weight, antioxidant activities, and expression level of the cysteine proteinase inhibitor gene (DcCPi), and by suppressing bacterial blockage in stem segments, ethylen...

As device feature sizes shrink below 0.18 μm, shorter wavelength exposure tools are being investigated to meet the requirements for higher resolution. Understanding the optical properties of thin films and substrate materials at short wavelengths (193 nm, 157 nm, and shorter) will be necessary to develop the lithographic process. Variable Angle Spectroscopic Ellipsometry (VASE) offers nondestru...

in this research, the effects of thidiazuron pulse treatment and salicylic acid were examined to improve vase life and maintain the quality of alstroemeria ҅modena҆ cut flowers. the experiment was done in a factorial experiment based on rcd with 16 treatments, 3 replications and 48 plots. the flowers were placed in different concentrations of thidiazuron (0, 10, 20, and 50 μm) and salicylic acid ...
