Abstract: Benjamin fig (Ficus benjamina) is an important foliage and landscape crop species comprising green and variegated genotypes. The latter develop leaves with yellow and white leaf areas which may impose lower photosynthetic activity, thus resulting in slower growth than green genotypes. In many species, the exogenous supply of cytokinin to pot-grown plants promotes growth, mainly due to enhanced carbon fixation. In this work, we analyze the effect of spraying the cytokinin 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) on growth and… Show more

“…These last results indicated higher frond thickness and a proportional higher photo assimilate partition to leaves as pot volume increased. The strong correlation between most growth parameters related to frond area expansion and frond anatomical structure and RGR were similar to those found for other ornamental vascular plants [15,16,17,18].…”

“…Chemical compounds from various plant parts have been extracted and isolated using different extraction techniques. Dimethyl Sulfoxide, 1,2-diethyl-Cyclooctane, 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-Furancarboxaldehyde, and (1-methylethyl)-Cyclohexane has been isolated from the fruit of F. carica [19,20]; α-cadinol, germacrene-D-4-ol, γ-cadinene, and α-muurolene isolated from leaves of F. benghalensis [21][22][23], chlorogenic, p-coumaric, ferulic and syringic acids isolated from F. benjamina roots [24][25][26]; and C-8 glucoside, isoquercitrin-6-O-4-hydroxybenzoate, and quercetin-3-O-β-rhamnoside from leaves of F. exasperata [27][28][29]. Among biological activities identified from different parts of Ficus sp were antibacterial, anticancer [30,22]; antioxidation [31][32][33]; and anti-inflammatory [34][35][36].…”
