Abstract

With diploid and tetraploid Hedychium coronarium as test material, the developmental process of cut flowers were observed. Micrographic changes of the flower stem base, corolla tube and petals were identified by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. With the bent neck of corolla tube and...

Abstract

Light is not only a photosynthetic energy source for biochemically plant cellular accumulation but also the most important signaling messenger for plant growth, development, and environmental adaptations, influencing the postharvest quality and longevity. In this study, to optimize the biochemical...

Abstract

Rose is among the most important cut flower crops worldwide. The vase life is an important indicator of cut rose quality. The composition of the vase solution directly affects vase life. Neoagaro-oligosaccharides (NAOS) are degraded seaweed-derived polysaccharides that constitute a group of...

This study investigates the effect of CO2 fertilization before harvest using 800 mol.mol-1 from November 2021 to May 2022 and vase solution treatment using slightly acidic electrolyzed water (HOCl 5 µL.L-1, pH 5.0-6.5) after harvest of Hydrangea macrophylla 'Moonstar'. The CO2 fertilization + HOCl...

Abstract

Nano-selenium (nano-Se) is an eco-friendly and inexpensive compound. The potential of including it in the holding solution to stimulate vase life was investigated by conducting two experiments. In the first one, dose-response curves were generated by applying different nano-Se concentrations (0-1...

Abstract

Bent neck can decrease the vase life of Rosa hybrida L. cv. "Black Magic" cut flowers. This study evaluated the efficacy of calcium nanoparticles, calcium chloride, and salicylic acid in delaying bent neck in cut roses. The cut flowers were placed in pulsing solutions containing 3 and 5 mM CaNPs or ...

Abstract

Nitric oxide releasing compound sodium nitroprusside (SNP) is regarded as novel chemical to beat the daunting challenges of postharvest losses in cut flowers. In the recent years, it has yielded propitious results as postharvest vase preservative for cut flowers. Our study explicates the efficacy...

Abstract

The current research paper manifests the impact of the electromagnetic field radiation on prolongation of the vase life of carnation cut flowers. Carnation cuttings were pre-exposed to various EMF flux densities (50 Hz) viz., 0, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180 and 200 mT via electromagnet. The...

Abstract

In the floriculture trade, cut pepper (Capsicum annuum) stems are typically grown for their fruit to add color contrast to the foliage and blossoms of conventional floral arrangements. Stems are commonly stripped of foliage because leaves wilt rapidly. Three divergent plant types and commercial...

Abstract

Background: Chitosan nanoparticles (CTS-NPs) protect the active ingredients from the environment for a specific period and reduces sweating, control weight loss, delay ripening, and increase vase life. So, a factorial experiment was carried out as a randomized complete design in three replications...
