abstract tuberose is one of the most important cut flowers in iran and the world. in this experiment, effect of microelements fe, zn, cu and mn on inflorescence length, inflorescence bunch length, number and diameter of floret, diameter of inflorescence bunch and vase life of tuberose flowers were studied. this study was based on four separate completely randomized experimental design with four...

to study the effect of planting date on morphological characteristic, yield and essential oil content of achillea millefolium sub sp millefolium.l., an experiment in a randomized complete blocks design (rcbd) with four treatments including four planting date (6 july, 1 august, 7 september and 7 october) in four replications was conducted. during the growing stage and at the end of experiment pe...

Herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.) is a traditional famous flower, but its poor inflorescence stem quality seriously constrains the development of the cut flower. Mechanical strength is an important characteristic of stems, which not only affects plant lodging, but also plays an important role in stem bend or break. In this paper, the mechanical strength, morphological indices and micr...

abstract this reasearch was conducted to study the phenotypic diversity of thymus kotschyanus populations. seeds were collected from natural inhabitats (guilan, mazandaran, west azarbaijan, semnan and qazvin) and planted in qom reasearch station in 2007. a number of some such different morphological and phenological traits of the plants as plant,s height, leaf length, leaf width, oil content, i...

seventeen iranian shallot genotypes from ashtian, arak, boroujerd, dashtearjan, doshmanziari, divandareh, khomein, khansar, sepidan, siakhdarengoon, sahne, kangavar, koohrang, koohmaresorkhi, nahavand, harsin and yasouj areas were evaluated for their morphological traits. corms were collected from the mentioned regions and planted based on a complete block design. quantitative and qualitative t...

The article represents results study intravarietal variability according to 7 structural features marigolds (Tagetes patula L.) cv. Elena Prekrasnaya under conditions Southern Urals. To develop a methodology produ...

several plant growth regulators are used to improve the quality of cut flower in bulb plants, but their effectiveness depends on genotype and plant growth conditions such as nutrition status. a pot experiment was conducted under farm condition to study benzyl adenine (ba) and potassium nitrate interaction on floret diameter, stem diameter, flower height, flower number per bulb, fresh and dry we...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different silicon supplements and postharvest treatments on growth and yield of gerbera in a greenhouse experiment. Silicon supplements were including potassium silicate at three concentrations (0, 140 and 200 mg L−1), sodium silicate at three concentrations (0, 50 and 100 mg L−1) and rice hull ash (RHA) at three concentrations (0, 50 and 1...

Abstract Flower shape is a key trait of ornamental and commercial importance in breeding programs for chrysanthemum ( Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.). Understanding the genetic basis phenotypic variation seen inflorescence-related traits will contribute to improvement development new varieties. In this study, we investigated determinants inflorescence using an F 1 segregating population derive...
