“…These results might be attributed to the role of actosol at a suitable concentration on activation of plant growth and promotion of nitrogen absorption and translocation, consequently the nitrogen content of the produced corms could be increased.

“…(White and Rose Prosperity), reported that soaking the corms before planting in actosol solution at the rate of 20 ml/l for 0, 12 and 24 hours increased new corm diameter. Also, Saeed et al (2014) on Gladiolus cv. Novalux concluded that, actosol treatment at 2.5 ml/l as a soil drench proved its superiority in increasing corms quality.…”

The present experiment was performed throughout two successive seasons of 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 at the nursery of Horticulture Research Institute, Agriculture Research Center, Giza, Egypt to investigate the effects of different concentrations of some fertilizer treatments alone or with some combinations between them on the vegetative growth, corms production and some chemical constituents of gladioli cormels. The used plant was Gladiolus grandiflorus cv."Rose Supreme" for its popularity in Cairo and Alexandria flower trade. The cormels of the used cultivar were planted in 25 cm. plastic pots filled with an equal mixture of sand and agricultural soil. After one month from planting the fertilizer treatments were started as a soil drench at 333.3 ml/plant and repeated five times at 15 days' interval. The fertilizer treatments were kristalon at 2 g/l, actosol at 2.5 ml/l or 5 ml/l and yeast extract at 5 or 10 g/l alone or with some combinations between them (13 treatments) . The experiment layout was designed to provide complete randomized blocks containing three replicates, each replicate had 13 different treatments and four cormels were used for each treatment in each replicate(plot).Results revealed that using yeast extract at 10 g/l combined with kristalon at 2g/l gave the highest significant increases of plant height, leaves number and the content of the produced corms of phosphorus, potassium and total carbohydrates, compared with the control treatment. While using yeast extract at 10 g/l combined with actosol at 2.5 ml/l achieved the largest circumference of the produced corms (grade number), corms dry weight and the number of cormels/plant, compared with the control treatment.Besides, using yeast extract at 5g/l combined with actosol (2.5 or 5.0 ml/l) gave the highest corms fresh weight, and leaves total carotenoids content, compared with the control treatment. Furthermore, using actosol alone (2.5 or 5.0 ml/l) gave the highest significant values of chlorophyll (a + b) in the leaves, nitrogen in the corms and cormels fresh weight, compared with the control treatment.From the aforementioned results it can be generally recommended to fertilize Gladiolus grandiflorus cv." Rose Supreme" cormels with yeast extract at 5 to 10 g/l (8.35 to 16.66 g/plant/season) combined with actosol at 2.5 to 5 ml/l (4.15 to 8.35 ml/plant/season) at 333.3 ml/plant/time five times to obtain corms with high quality.

“…The previous observations showed the clonal growth in Gladiolus cultivars (Rameau & Gouyon, 1991) and its great enhancement after the clipping of leaves and inflorescences (Memon et al, 2009) or the adding of fertiliser (Ali et al, 2014;Saeed et al, 2014;Khattab et al, 2016). Successful clonal growth was also observed in other tuberous taxa such as Dicentra canadensis (Lin et al, 2016) and Crocus sativus (Negb et al, 1989).…”

Spatio-temporal variability of Gladiolus imbricatus L. populations in different plant communities near Kraków

Abstract. The investigations, aimed to assess the abundance, stage structure and distribution of shoots, as well as the chosen traits of generative shoots (number of leaves and length of the longest one, height of shoot, length of inflorescence and the dorsal tepal of the lowermost flower, number of seed capsules) of Gladiolus imbricatus L. were conducted in the years 2015-2017. The observations were carried out from Kraków-Pychowice to Tyniec in abandoned moor-grass meadow (Patch I), shrub willows (Patch II), macroforb community (Patch III) and community dominated by tall-growing grasses (Patch IV). The population abundance augmented gradually in subsequent study sites. Additionally, the temporal fluctuations of shoot number were recorded in all the Patches. The similar in consecutive years' stage structure differs among the study sites. The occurrence of juvenile, vegetative and generative shoots in Patch I might suggest the successful seedling recruitment, while the lack of shoots in pregenerative stages in Patches II-IV might indicate the absence of safe sites for the appearance of new genets. The occurrence of clusters of shoots in Patches II-IV might be a consequence of clonal growth. The traits of generative shoots rather did not show the temporal variability, but they presented spatial variability and in most cases augmented from Patch I, via Patches II and III, to Patch IV.The performed studies enabled ascertaining that the population occurring in Patch I presents the best condition despite the lowest abundance of shoots. Also the other, more abundant populations, inhabiting Patches II-IV might persist in the colonised sites thanks to the vegetative multiplication of ramets and maximisation of chances for successful pollination and effective seed dissemination.

One of the most important problems encountered in the cultivation of cut flower gladiolus is soil-borne diseases and pests. This problem substantially reduces flower yield and quality. Soilless culture is very limited for gladiolus and it has not been studied extensively. The characteristics of the growing media used in soilless culture either directly or indirectly affect yield and quality. Therefore, it is quite essential to determine the appropriate growing media in cut flower cultivation. At the same time good flower production usually depends upon various factors including the type of growing media used. The present study was conducted to determine the effects of two different gladiolus varieties (Gladiolus grandiflorus L. cv. “Purple Flora” and “Ibadan”) and six different growing media (peat+pumice: 1:1, v/v; peat+perlite: 1:1, v/v; rice hull+pumice: 1:2, v/v; coarse sand+peat: 2:1, v/v; soil; and cocopeat) on the some quality parameters of gladiolus in in Batı Akdeniz Agricultural Research Institute (BATEM), Antalya, Türkiye. Quality parameters (stem length, flower stem diameter, stem weight, flowering time, number of florest) were significantly (p < 0.01) affected by the different growing media and cultivars. Among the growing media, the earliest flowering time (77.8 days) and the longest stem length (128.0 cm) were determined in peat+perlite, whereas the largest number of florets (15.0 florets spike-1) were recorded in peat+pumice. Regarding the varieties, Purple Flora (84.7 days) flowered earlier than Ibadan (102.7 days), while Ibadan displayed more superior characteristics in terms of the other parameters.
