A constant highrelativeairhumidity (RH) during cultivation can strongly reduce the vase life in some cutrosecultivars. We studied three contrastingcultivars in their tolerance to high RH in order to analyse in detail the waterrelations during postharvest and better understand this genotypic variation. Plants were grown at moderate (60%) and high (95%) RH, and cut flowers were placed in water immediately after c...
Height control in ornamental plants: sustainable alternatives to growth regulators. The need to find sustainable and efficient strategies to control plant height is currently a great challenge in the protected cultivation of ornamental plants. The aim of this study was to: (1) analyse the available information on the factors involved in plant height; (2) understand the underlying physiological mechanisms behind...
