“…Third day in vase log 10 cfu mL This observation is comparable to other experiments in which the biocidal influence of preservatives and pulsing agents inhibit microbial proliferation in the stems and/or vase water of many cut flower and foliage plant species (Naing et al, 2017;Wijayabandara et al, 2018). As shown in Tables 1, 2 and 3, wet cold storage duration significantly affected microbial proliferation (P˂0.0001) in the vase water of the spikes pulsed with 600 ppm 8-HQS plus 5% sucrose solution compared with the control.…”

Occlusion of the stem vasculature by microorganisms that proliferate in the vase water, or the plant vessels, leads to water stress symptoms that reduce postharvest quality of cut flowers. This study aimed to determine the effects of pulsing and wet-cold storage on the microbial profiles in cut Gladiolus grandiflorus L. cv. Fado. Pulsing treatments of 600-ppm 8-hydroxyquinoline sulfate plus 5% sucrose solution versus distilled water were administered before wet cold storage periods of 0-5 days in cut Gladiolus, previously grown from corms under open field. A two-by-six factorial experiment embedded in a completely randomized design with four replicates was accomplished. Proc GLM in two-way Anova was adopted, and the means were separated using Tukey’s test at a 5% level of significance. The pulsing treatment of 600 ppm 8-HQS plus 5% sucrose, the wet cold storage duration and their interactive effects significantly (P˂0.0209; ˂0.0001 and ˂0.0001 respectively) affected the means of the colony-forming units in the vase water of cut Gladiolus at senescence. The prolonged vase life of cut gladioli spikes was associated with decreased microbial proliferation as influenced by pulsing and wet storage duration of up to 4 days. Data generated from this study will improve existing technologies related to the quality and market value of this Gladiolus cultivar.

“…8-HQS controlled microbial growth in the holding solution and helped to prolong vase life of cut stems (Hettiarachchi and Balas, 2005). The enhancement of vase life of cut foliages by using sucrose in combination with AgNO 3 @ 20 and 40 ppm reported by Malakar et al, 2017. Wijayabandara et al, 2018 reported that the most effective vase solutions for Ophiopogon japonicus were sucrose 20 or 30 g/L pulsing treatments for 24 hour.…”

“…is a valuable medicinal herb used in the pharmaceutical industry as a tonic, cosmetic, or medicinal product to treat diseases such as cough, oligogalactias, urine retention, or diabetes. Besides, it is considered an ornamental plant (Wijayabandara et al, 2015) or an intercropping plant to cover the soil and limit weeds and fungal diseases (Iqbal et al, 2004;Lin et al, 2009). In Vietnam, it has been grown as an intercropping crop with perennial orchards and industrial crops (Nguyen and Nguyen, 2011).…”

Applying the biological product of arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) is considered an effective strategy to improve crop productivity to cope with climate change in current agricultural production. The experiment was conducted to evaluate the impact on growth, yield, and secondary metabolites of medicinal mondo grass under rainfed conditions. The split-plot design was used with the main factor of six various AMF doses (0, 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 kg•ha -1 year -1 ) and the sub-factor of two mondo grass genotypes (G1 and G2). AMF supplement had positive effects on both genotypes in increasing canopy size, the number of leaves and tillers, root growth, leaf osmotic pressure and chlorophyll fluorescence, total biomass, yield components, uptake of macronutrients, contents of polysaccharide, saponin, flavonoid, and decreasing leaf water deficit and ion leakage. G2 a higher drought-tolerant genotype performed better than G1 for investigated characteristics (except canopy height and SPAD), but the effect of AMF was clearer in the G1 genotype. Supplement of 300 kg AMF ha -1 year -1 could be the optimum rate for growth and medicinal quality of mondo grass under rainfed conditions.
