A study to assess the effects of mode of application of rooting hormones (IBA) on adventitious root formation of V. paradoxa stem cuttings was conducted. Accordingly, four application methods were investigated in a 4 × 3 factorial experiment using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The application methods were: 24-hour extended soak, foliar spraying, basal quick dip and delayed IBA application method. Thus, the parameters used to determine rooting success were mean root length and root number. The effect of these application methods on occurrence of bud break was also considered. On the whole, root length was observed to be a function of IBA concentration, whereby root length increased significantly (P ≤ 0.05) with an increment in IBA concentration. Stem cuttings subjected to 24-h extended soak at 100 ppm rooted best (59.5% ± 8.33%), where as foliar sprayed stem cuttings exhibited the worst rooting success (11.9 ± 3.06 - 23.8% ± 4.16%). Bud break appeared to decrease with increasing IBA concentration and delaying IBA application enhanced rooting percentage of the quick dip method by 7.1%, 9.5% and 11.9% at 2500 ppm, 3500 ppm and 4500 ppm, respectively. The extended soak method of IBA application at 80 ppm shows potential for large scale production of V. paradoxa through stem cuttings.展开更多

Toward this goal, we evaluated the physiochemical changes of terminal buds of fig 'Sabz' and their micromorphology during the dormant season(November to April) using Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) analysis during two consecutive years(2016 and 2017). Results indicated that the highest contents of total sugars in terminal fig buds were registered in January and the lowest values were noticed in April. SEM analysis showed the presence of vegetative terminal fig buds during the dormant season and after bud-break in April. An increasing trend was observed for the protein content, length and diameter of terminal buds at the beginning of bud-break. In dormant buds, ascorbate peroxidase, peroxidase and catalase enzymes exhibited initially an ascending pattern,while it decreased from December. A second increase for these enzymes occurred during the dormant season until bud-break. Superoxide dismutase activity increased in buds during the dormancy season until bud-break. Proline content remained stable in buds from November to February, while it decreased rapidly until bud-break. Furthermore, a downward trend of the total phenol content in buds was observed between the onset and end of dormant period. In general, the dormant buds in 'Sabz' fig cultivar were metabolically active with a short dormant period under the rain-fed conditions.展开更多

[Method] Pear flowers were collected from normal bloom(NB) and returning bloom periods during late autumn in 2011-2013,respectively. The morphological and physiological indices including pollen number,germination rate, petal length, soluble protein content, soluble sugar content, amino acid content, pollen tube growth, fruiting characteristics of NB and RB flowers were detected and compared. [Result] The filament length and petal area of RB flowers were significantly smaller than those of NB flowers. The contents of soluble proteins, soluble sugars and amino acids of RB pollens were significantly smaller than those of NB flowers. In addition, the abortion rate of RB flowers was higher than that of NB flowers. [Conclusion] RB flowers had complete floral organs and were capable of pollination, but they were different from NB flowers in some morphological and physiological indices.展开更多
