“…The use of ethylene inhibitors such as 1-methylcyclopropane (1-MCP) is common (Asil et al, 2013), spermine and limonene in gerberas (Mohammadi et al, 2020), alstroemeria (Langroudi et al, 2019), Wax flowers (Abdalghani et al, 2018) and Snapdragon (Heffron and Korban, 2022). The use of preservatives such as oligosaccharins, 8-hydroxyquinoline citrate (8HQC) and sucrose is also reported to show higher percentages of bud opening and flower pigmentation, as well as maintenance of appearance, color and overall size of lisianthus flowers (López-Guerrero et al, 2021), clematis (Rabiza-Świder et al, 2017) and tulips (Hwang et al, 2014).…”

The cut flower sector is an area of horticulture that generates great economic and academic interest worldwide, the production of flowers represents a market segment that has aesthetic and sentimental purposes in many regions of the world. In recent years, a large amount of research has been generated that has promoted this sector, therefore, in this work we have proposed to develop a systematic review in this field of knowledge, with the objective of consolidating knowledge, guiding future research, and supporting informed decisions, thus contributing to the efficient use of resources and the continuous advancement of the cut flower industry. The systematic review process was divided into six stages, starting with the definition of the search equation and the collection of information from the prestigious Scopus database. Subsequently, a detailed quality and technical analysis of the 532 documents collected was conducted. These documents were grouped into 13 topics that are related to the production system, ranging from propagation techniques, genome study, genetic improvement to topics of current interest such as sustainability. Each of these topics was examined and the results of this analysis led to the preparation of this technical document, which includes relevant aspects that have contributed to the improvement of productivity and productive diversity in species and under different climatic conditions.

“…The importance of starch in the rooting success of both C. subternata and C. genistoides cuttings requires further investigation, particularly regarding the availability of soluble carbohydrates to cuttings throughout the duration of the rooting period. In addition, the role of oligo-to polysaccharides in activating or inhibiting plant growth and development (Albersheim et al, 1992;John et al, 1997;López-Guerrero et al, 2021) is not known for honeybush, as only total starch as a source of carbohydrates was considered in previous studies (Wooldridge et al, 2012a(Wooldridge et al, , 2012b(Wooldridge et al, , 2012c.…”

Propagation and cultivation practices of honeybush (Cyclopia spp.) for the sustainable production of an export quality indigenous South African tea

et al. 2022

Honeybush (Cyclopia) species are endemic to the Fynbos Biome of the Cape Floral Kingdom in South Africa. Traditionally, honeybush foliage is cut, fermented, and sun-dried to make an antioxidant-rich herbal tea. Approximately 80% of honeybush is unsustainably harvested from the wild. All commercial species are indicated on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species. Cultivation is thus required to ensure sufficient volumes of tea are produced. A major limitation to cultivation is the poor rooting responses of the species that regenerate from shoots, C. genistoides and C. intermedia, the latter being the most harvested from the wild. The establishment of clonally propagated material is a challenge for all six of the commercially important Cyclopia species. Research on honeybush has mainly focused on the unique properties contributing to flavor, medicinal value, as well as processing. Much less is known about propagation, nutrient requirements, harvesting procedures, plant improvement, and pest and disease management. This review considers management strategies for the sustainable harvesting of wild honeybush and the potential risks of introducing improved plant material. Cultivation practices and management strategies that promote longevity and enhance yield are defined. The inherent rooting ability of cuttings is discussed. Cultivated stands are mostly established by seedlings which results in diversity of vigor and tea quality. A sustainable market based on high-quality indigenous tea requires the use of clonal material which allows the selection of desired traits and rapid multiplication. Its use would enable improved yield and profitability without compromising tea quality.

“…Alginate oligosaccharides enhance resistance to pathogens, drought, salt, heavy metals, and other stressors by triggering plant immunity, and perform well in postharvest storage (Zhang et al 2020). Pectin-derived oligosaccharins extend the vase life and increase the postharvest quality of lisianthus flowers (L opez-Guerrero et al 2019(L opez-Guerrero et al , 2021. Combined treatments of nigerosylmaltooligosaccharide with glucose and sucrose increase the number of open flowers and significantly extend the vase life of cut snapdragon flowers (Ichimura et al 2022).…”

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 compounds with small molecular weight and good water solubility. Oligosaccharide treatment can extend the postharvest longevity of certain types of cut flowers; however, little information is available on the utility of NAOS for preservation of cut rose flowers. To explore the effects of NAOS on the longevity and quality of cut flowers of rose ‘Gaoyuanhong’, 100 mg·L−1 NAOS alone and in combination with 10 g·L−1 sucrose were incorporated in the vase solution. Distilled water was used as the control. Physiological indicators, comprising maximum flower diameter, fresh weight, water balance, vase life, bacteria number in the vase solution, and hormone contents of the outer petals, were determined in fresh cut flowers and analyzed. Compared with the control, 100 mg·L−1 NAOS treatment increased the maximum flower diameter (mean 8.21 cm), induced the maximum rates of change in flower diameter and cut flower fresh weight, maintained the best water balance, significantly extended the vase life to 16 days, and reduced the number of bacteria in the vase solution. The abscisic acid content of the outer petals in the control and 100 mg·L−1 NAOS treatments were significantly lower than that of the other treatments on day 9. The results showed that NAOS is useful to improve the postharvest quality and extend the vase life of cut rose flowers, and might contribute to the development of novel alternative preservatives for the cut rose industry.
