“…Increasing SNP concentrations led to prolong the vase life of carnation cut flowers. This result is in agreement with the previous studies on other cut flowers such as Polianthes tuberose (Hutchinson et al, 2004), 'Cherry Brandy' rose (Jowkar et al, 2013) and Tulipa spp. (Bowyer et al, 2003).…”

A biological method for synthesizing silver nanoparticles (SNPs) using the leaf extracts of Arachis pintoi Krapov. & W.C. Greg. was developed. The optimum conditions of input materials were found with leaf autoclaving in 15 min, 20 g fresh leave, and 4 mM of silver nitrate (AgNO3). To study the role of time, temperature, and solution pH of the reaction, varying time reaction (5, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 min), temperature reaction (10, 20, 30, 40, and 50oC) and pH of the solution (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11) were investigated. The optimal biosynthesis conditions were achieved in 180 min of reaction time at 50oC and pH 11. The obtained nanoparticles have spherical and oblong in shape with average size of 26.4 nm. The SNPs in 4 concentrationss (5, 15, 25, and 35 ppm) combined with and without 2% sucrose extended vase life, enlarged flower diameter, and maintained increase the relative fresh weight with vase solution uptake rate. SNPs inhibited significantly the bacterial growth in the stem end and vase solution, reduced the blockage in stems and therefore promoted the postharvest quality of carnation cut flowers. Out of the treatments, administration of 5 ppm SNPs with 2% sucrose of vase solution gave the best results for all parameters. The biosynthesis SNPs could be applied as a promising preservative solution for carnation cut flowers.

“…Mehdikhah et al (2016) found lower fresh mass loss in cut gerbera flowers treated with 100 mg L -1 of citric acid when compared to other concentrations and control. Jowkar et al (2012) also studying the effect of citric acid as a biocide, observed better fresh weight gain in the flower stems of 'Cherry Brandy' Roses. However, from day 5 onward, fresh weight showed a decrease in all treatments.…”

Chrysanthemum is one of the most commercialized cut flowers on world market. After cutting, it becomes highly perishable due to the increased metabolic activity that leads to senescence. Thus, the experiment was carried out in order to evaluate action of maintenance solutions on the postharvest physiology cutting chrysanthemums of the cultivar Framint. A completely randomized design was used in the factorial scheme composed of two factors: four postharvest treatments and seven evaluation times. The flowers remained in the following maintenance solutions: citric acid solution, solution with boric acid, and salicylic acid solution at concentrations 100 mg. L-1 for both treatments in combination with 1% ethanol. During postharvest period, following analyzes were performed: fresh mass loss, volume of water absorbed, luminosity (petals), activity of the enzymes ascorbate peroxidase (APX), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), superoxide dismutase (SOD), total protein and total carbohydrate content. The treatment with citric acid + ethanol was the most adequate to conserve the quality and to prolong longevity of the flowers, being confirmed by the smaller loss of fresh mass, respiratory activity, better maintenance of carbohydrate and protein content.

“…Otros metales como el Al, adicionado a partir de Al 2 (SO 4 ) 3 en rosa cv. "Cherry Brandy" a una concentración de 100 mg L -1 , resultó en un mayor valor de lecturas SPAD, en comparación con el testigo; concluyéndose que este efecto positivo del Al en la clorofila es debido a la mejora de las relaciones hídricas en los tallos florales (Jowkar et al, 2012); resultados coincidentes con los aquí presentados del consumo de agua y de la materia seca en las Figuras 1 y 3, respectivamente.…”

En esta investigación se evaluó el efecto del cobalto (Co) en distintas concentraciones (0, 0.3 y 0.6 mM) en variables poscosecha de varas florales de gladiola (Gladiolus grandiflorus Hort.) cultivar Borrega Roja. Durante siete días se evaluó la absorción de agua por las varas florales y la variación en el peso de éstas, así como también la cinética de apertura de las flores que constituyen cada inflorescencia. Después de siete días de tratamiento, se evaluó el peso de materia seca por órgano (tallo, hojas e inflorescencia) y concentración y contenido de N por órgano; concentración de clorofilas a, b y total. Se observó un incremento significativo en la absorción de agua en varas f lorales tratadas con ambas concentraciones de Co, respecto al testigo, después de 144 h de iniciados los tratamientos; asimismo en este muestreo, el menor porcentaje de pérdida de peso en fresco se registró en varas tratadas con 0.3 mM; no obstante, éste no fue diferente estadísticamente al resto de los tratamientos. La concentración baja de Co, incrementó significativamente el contenido de N en tallos y laconcentraciónfoliardeclorofilas.ElConotuvoinfluencia en la cinética de apertura foliar ni la concentración de N por órgano. Los pesos de materia seca total, de hojas y de tallos fueron superiores con el tratamiento de Co de 0.3 mM.
