Preliminary Studies on Fresh Keeping of Gladiolus Cut Flowers by Using 1-Methylcyclopropene

Lin Yin-feng

Abstract

The treatment on cut flowers of gladiolus (Gladiolus hybridus Hort.) by different concentration of 1-Methylcyclopropene (1-MCP)showed that 1-MCP treatment could increase floret open rate and fancy value of Gladiolus,decrease wilting degree of Gladiolus,delay increase of relative permeability of petal and leaf plasma membrane and had some effects on content of petal protein and leaf chlorophyll.Among the 1-MCP concentration treatments 100 nl/L 1-MCP treatment got optimum effect.
