Floral senescence or petal abscission that determine cut flower quality and longevity are primarily caused by the regulation of endogenous ethylene and perception of endogenous and exogenous ethylene in floral organs(...Floral senescence or petal abscission that determine cut flower quality and longevity are primarily caused by the regulation of endogenous ethylene and perception of endogenous and exogenous ethylene in floral organs(such as the petals and gynoecium),in ethylene-sensitive species.Several attempts have been made to prolong flower quality and longevity using silver ions and other chemicals that inhibit ethylene production and perception in floral organs.Among the available compounds,1-methylcyclopropene(1-MCP)has been increasingly used as ethylene-action/perception inhibitor because of its ability to inhibit ethylene action/perception and it is environmentally safe.Although 1-MCP has been used in several cut flower crops for about 25 years,there has been no review yet that critically emphasizes the benefits or difficulties of using this compound for the prolongation of cut flower quality and longevity.Here,we outline the role of 1-MCP in inhibiting ethylene action/perception and petal senescence in cut flowers through the blocking of receptor binding sites,and we discuss how various factors affecting efficacy of 1-MCP(such as concentration,treatment time and temperature,genotype,and flower stage)are involved in the achievement of flower longevity.Moreover,we highlight the advantages of applying nonvolatile and liquid 1-MCP formulation types,as opposed to using the conventional 1-MCP treatment(powder formulation type).We expect that this review will provide useful information for the future utilization of 1-MCP for the maintenance of cut flower longevity.展开更多

Shinners,was subjected to treatments of different light intensities( 100%,85%,70% and 55% of natural light intensity) and different light durations( 10-h natural lighting,12-h natural lighting,12-h natural lighting+ 2-h LED lighting,12-h natural lighting + 4-h LED lighting),and then its plant height,crown width,stem thickness,stalk thickness,total flower number,flowering period and growth situation were analyzed. The results show that E. grandiflorum( Raf.) Shinners is sensitive to the changes in light intensity. Under 85% of natural light intensity( 40 000-50 000 lux),E. grandiflorum( Raf.) Shinners grew faster,bloomed earlier with more flowers,and was taller,thicker,more robust,higher in yield,larger in pedicel length,and better in cut flower quality,without rosette phenomenon. Long-term exposure to low-intensity light would led to slow growth,thin stalk,delayed flowering,low yield and reduced cut flower quality in E. grandiflorum( Raf.) Shinners. The illumination duration of more than 12 h could promote the differentiation of flower buds,increase the plant height,increase the length of pedicels of E. grandiflorum( Raf.) Shinners. Extending the light duration by 2-4 h at night,that is,14-16 h of illumination was the most ideal illumination time for the growth of E. grandiflorum( Raf.)Shinners. A longer photoperiod could promote the growth and bring forward the blooming of E. grandiflorum( Raf.) Shinners. The longer the illumination time,the higher the plant. The optimum illumination time was between 14 and 16 h. When the illumination duration was shorter than 12 h,the growth of E. grandiflorum( Raf.) Shinners was retarded,and its flowering was also delayed.展开更多

In the study, 11 cultivars of herbaceous peonies suitable for cutting flowers were selected; different harvesting stages (three or four stages) were identified according to bud development observation (bud firmness, bud diameter, sepal angle, petal angle, and color showing). Moreover, flower development and vase life were also recorded in the experiment of vase. Bud development observation shows that there are great differences in optimum harvesting stage between the culti- vars, especially between the hybrid peony group and lactiflora group. This implies that bud diameter could not be the only indicator for optimum harvesting stage. Bud description, including sepal opening angle, sepal color, petal color showing, and degree of firmness, is necessary for the determination of the harvesting stage. Among the 11 cultivars,‘Pink Hawaiian Coral', ‘Red Charm', ‘Edulis Superba', ‘Red Magic', and ‘Sarah Bernhardt' should be harvested at stage 1. ‘Duchesse de Nemours', ‘Taff', ‘Sorbet' and ‘Monsieur Jules Elie' should be harvested at stage 2. ‘Kansas' should be at stage 3 and ‘Karl Rosenfield' at stage 4. The determination of optimum harvesting stage for each cultivar is an important element in cut flower production.展开更多

[Methods] The vase life, flowering stage, flower diameter variation, petal water content, and soluble protein and malondialdehyde contents were determined on cut rose flowers regularly during the vase period, to study the fresh-keeping effects of the vase solutions prepared from such three components as sugar, aspirin and Vc according to L9(33) orthogonal table design on cut rose flowers during the vase period. [Results] 20 g/L white granulated sugar+460 mg/L aspirin+50 mg/L Vc was the best combination in this study. [Conclusions] This study provides a reference for the research on the fresh-keeping vase solutions of household cut rose flowers.展开更多

[Method] In winter, six lily cultivars including White Express, Concad'or, Aktiva, Donato, Star Fighter and Serano were planted outdoors in Hainan. Phenophase, morphological traits and cut flower quality of the tested cultivars were observed and compared in order to choose varieties suitable for Hainan. [Result] Their growth period ranged from 96 to 113 d with the mean of 105.3 d. Six cultivars had obvious differences in biological characteristics and cut- flower quality. Compared with the other 4 cultivars, Aktiva and Serano were superior for their bright color and beautiful shape, height uniformity, long florescence and strong growing. According to the comprehensive evaluation system of lily variety, the sequence was Serano 〉 Aktiva 〉 Concad'or 〉 Star Fighter 〉 Donato 〉 White Ex- press. [Conclusion] The two cultivars of Aktiva and Serano with good characters are selected for further research and extension in Sanya of Hainan.展开更多
