two factorial experiments were conducted to study the interactive effects of four levels of sucrose (0, 20, 40 and 60 g l-1), two levels of citric acid (0 and 160 mg l-1) and two levels of one of the following compounds (aluminum sulphate, 0 and 160 mg l-1 and silver nitrate, 0 and 120 g l-1) on vase life and quality attributes of lisianthus cut flowers ‘mariachi blue fonce.’ the experiments ca...

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-...

gerbera cut flowers is one of the important and popular cut flowers in the world that regardless of increasing production of this plant in iran, the duration of its life is short due to rapid wilting petals and bending neck of flower. to increase vase life of gerbera cut flowers cv. ‘alain ducasse’, the essences of eucalyptus and rosa damascena, the combination of these two essences at a concen...

in order to study the physiological effects of some of the essential oils in comparison with 8-hydroxyquinoline in cut lisianthus flowers (eustoma grandiflorum l.), an experimental was conducted in a completely randomized design with three replications. traetments included 8-hydroxyquinoline, essential oil of australian cheesewood (pittosporum undudatum) and rosmary oil(rosmarinus officinalis) ...

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 ...
