The objective of the present investigation was to study the role of calcium on antioxidative
enzymes activity during the post-harvest life of Gladiolus (Gladiolus grandiflorus). Among the …

Studies were conducted to establish the role of membrane integrity in flower senescence of
gladiolus. Membrane integrity in terms of membrane stability index (MSI) was positively is …

Flower senescence was studied in Gladiolus cv.“Snow Princess” over five arbitrarily divided
developmental stages (stage 1, half bloom; stage 2, full bloom; stage 3, beginning of wilting; …

Abstract Effects of post-harvest application of two plant growth regulators viz., gibberellic
acid (GA 3) and benzyl adenine (BA) with sucrose in the vase solution on cell membrane …

Cut flowers face the problem of short display life and lose their aesthetic value rapidly. In
order to enhance the vase life of gladiolus, its cut spikes were subjected to different levels of …

An experiment was conducted to determine the aging mechanism in safflower seed using
natural aging treatment (storing seed at room temperature for six years) and accelerated …

Gladiolus (Wing's sensation) is one of the popular cut flowers that demonstrates postharvest
problems which cause shorter vase life and loss of quality. In this research, effect of salicylic …

This study investigated the effects of lanthanum supplied as lanthanum (III) chloride (LaCl 3)
on the activities of antioxidant enzymes, the contents of non-enzymatic substances (reduced …

Background Leaf senescence is an oxidative process, and most of the catabolic events
involved in senescence are propagated irreversibly once initiated. Results Salinity hastened …

Chilling accumulation is required for deciduous trees to maintain its normal growth and
development. However, warm winters appeared more and more frequently, which hindered …
