postharvest senescence is a major factor, limiting the marketing of many species of cut flowers, including roses. considerable efforts have been devoted to developing postharvest treatments to lengthen the extend of the marketing period. the purpose of this study was to determine the most suitable nitric oxide, and thidiazuron concentrations to increase the antioxidant activity as well as prote...

lilium ledebourii (baker) boiss. (liliaceae) is a critically endangered lily species native tonorthern iran, where it is protected by law. in order to develop a cost effective method for largescalepropagation, the effects of three culture systems (solid, liquid and temporary immersion)and two types of cytokinins [6-benzyladenine (ba) and thidiazuron (tdz)] were studied onthe in vitro plant rege...

Apical meristems, first, second and third-fourth axillary buds of Ludwigia repens were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing various concentrations of 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), thidiazuron (TDZ) and αnaphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) for micropropagation. Micropropagation was best achieved from apical meristem on MS medium containing 0.05 mg dm TDZ and 0.1 mg dm NAA. It was noted t...

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of treatment conditions plant growth regulators on marketability ‘Red Dream’, a triploid grape. In order achieve purpose this study, gibberellic acid 3 (GA3) 100 ppm single use group set as control group. addition, fruit characteristics expressed when cytokinins such thidiazuron (TDZ) or forchlorfenuron (CPPU) 2.5 5.0 mixed with GA3 were compar...

Melia volkensii Gurke is a drought-tolerant tree native to East Africa's arid and semiarid lands (ASALs), with vast but underutilized potential for agroforestry and sustainable livelihoods in the ASALs. Its cultivation is limited by difficulties in propagation via conventional means. Full exploitation of the ability of thidiazuron (TDZ) to elicit regeneration in plant tissue cultures, as sole p...
