Title: Study on the Technology of Preservation of Cut Flowers of Carnation(Dianthus caryophyllus) with AgNO_3 in the Vase
Abstract: In a study reported in this paper,cut flowers of Carnation(Dianthus caryophyllus) were kept in vases containing a basic preservation liquid of 5% sucrose +200 mg·L-1 of 8-HQ,supplemented with AgNO3 at 25,50,75 or 100 mg·L-1.Morphological examination and physiological determination showed that treatment D(5% sucrose +200 mg·L-1 8-HQ +100 mg·L-1 AgNO3) significantly retarded the aging of the cut flowers and prolonged their vase life by 5 days,compared with the control.
