“…3), STS did not affect water uptake or change in rose fresh weight (data not presented). Chamani et al (2005) found that 'First Red' vase life was extended with a 0.5 mM STS application but not 1-MCP treatment, which is consistent with the results for 'First Red' and the other five cultivars tested in this study where 1-MCP did not significantly improve vase life (Table 2). 1-MCP applied either as a fumigation or via sachets prevented a decrease in vase life from exogenous ethylene in one of three cultivars studied by Macnish et al (2010).…”

“…Philosoph-Hadas et al (2005) found that treating stems with 0.4 mLÁL -1 1-MCP for 4 h increased vase life for rose cultivars Pink Tango, Jazz, Frisco, and Golden Gate compared with ethylene-exposed control stems, and Macnish et al (2010) found that various types of 1-MCP treatment prevented the negative effects of exogenous ethylene. However, Chamani et al (2005) found that treating stems with 1 mLÁL -1 1-MCP for 2 h did not improve vase life in 'First Red'. The effects of ethylene and antiethylene agents on water uptake are also not known.…”

“…The increases in vase life due to STS revealed that STS may be playing another role in the stem other than acting solely as an antiethylene agent. For example, STS improved vase life regardless of exogenous ethylene application for cut 'First Red' and 'Sonia' roses (Chamani et al, 2005;Lukaszewska et al, 1990). Even though the primary use of STS is ethyleneaction inhibition, STS has also been shown to exhibit antimicrobial characteristics (Al-Humaid, 2004), which could be why vase life was improved in stems treated with STS even when exogenous ethylene had no effect.…”

ADDITIONAL INDEX WORDS. Rosa hybrida, 1-methylcyclopropene, ethylene, silver thiosulfate, senescence SUMMARY. Various postharvest procedures were conducted on several rose (Rosa hybrida) cultivars to determine the effects on vase life, water uptake, change in fresh weight, stage of opening, and vase life termination criteria. Vase life was influenced by cultivar and vase solution. Commercial preservative solutions resulted in a longer vase life, smaller decrease in fresh weight than the controls, and smaller increase in water uptake. Vase life of nine cultivars in distilled water ranged from a low of 7.1 days for Queen 2000 to a high of 15.3 days for Forever Young. Flower termination criteria were also cultivar specific with Black Baccara, Classy, and Charlotte most prone to bent neck and blackening of petal tips. Exogenous ethylene at 0.4 or 4.0 mLÁL L1 did not affect vase life but lowered water uptake. Application of the antiethylene agent silver thiosulfate (STS) at 0.2 mM concentration significantly improved vase life in five out of the nine cultivars (Anna, Charlotte, First Red, Freedom, and Konfetti) tested, but 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) at 740 nLÁL L1 did not improve vase life over the control. Both vase life and water uptake were reduced when more than one stem was placed in a vase; placing 10 stems in a vase shortened vase life by 1.4 days and impeded water uptake by up to 10.6 mL/stem per day. Increasing the amount of time stems remained dry before placing in a vase reduced vase life, but recutting immediately before placing in a vase minimized the decline. Increasing the amount of stem cut off the base up to 10 cm increased vase life.

“…This therefore suggests that early senescence and wilting is correlated to level of ethylene sensitivity. The results of ethylene sensitivity are in agreement with studies carried out on Dendrobium 'Khao Sanan' (Lerslerwong and Ketsa, 2008), mini Phalaenopsis (Sun et al, 2009), Oncidium 'Gower Ramsey' (Huang and Paull, 2009) and cut roses (Chamani et al, 2005). The weight losses in the cut orchids such as D. 'Darren Glory' and D. 'Shavin White' were higher than the others (Figure 1) and this could be related to the level of ethylene sensitivity.…”

The time to senescence of flowers in Dendrobium hybrids is different and one of the major reasons for this variation in vase life can be related to differences in the level of ethylene sensitivity. This study was conducted to determine the sensitivity of six cut Dendrobium hybrids to exogenous ethylene. The cut orchid inflorescences were treated with or without 10 µL/L ethylene gas for 24 h, and then placed in bottles containing a standard vase solution. Water loss, vase life, anthocyanin contents and ethylene production were determined after the treatments. The results indicated that different hybrids showed distinct variances in ethylene sensitivities and degrees of deterioration. Dendrobium 'Darren Glory' and D. 'Jaquelyne Concert' × D. 'Rinappa' exhibited the utmost hyponasty, weight loss and degradation of anthocyanin content in sepals and petals. Thus, these two hybrids were categorized as the very sensitive group. On the other hand, D. 'Sonia Red', D. 'Shavin White', D. 'Sonia White' and D. 'Sonia Bom' showed lower sensitivity and hence were categorized in the less sensitive group. The results of this experiment and similar experiments to determine the resistant and susceptible cultivars to ethylene injury can be helpful in improving the postharvest life of cut orchid flowers.

“…The postharvest disorders in cut rose flowers are a major limitation in their ornamental value (Rihn et al, 2014). In order to prolong vase life of cut flowers, many previous studies have been conducted to reduce ethylene damage using various ethylene inhibitors, such as nitric oxide, silver thiosulfate (STS), and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), which repressed the transcript levels of ethylene biosynthesis and receptor genes (Chamani et al, 2005;Liao et al, 2013;Ichimura and Niki, 2014). Similarly, the bacteria-induced xylem blockage was prevented by using various chemical compounds containing silver ions that have antimicrobial activity to inhibit the growth of microorganism (Ichimura et al, 2008;Cumbal and Alma, 2016).…”

Extension of the Vase Life of Cut Roses by Both Improving Water Relations and Repressing Ethylene Responses

In cut roses (Rosa hybrida L.), the vase life of ethylene-sensitive cultivars (SENS) is determined by ethylene, and that of ethylene-insensitive cultivars (INSENS) is closely related to water relations. This variation in senescence among rose cultivars makes it difficult to prolong the vase life of cut roses after harvest. In this study, we investigated the combination effect of germicide and ethylene inhibition on the postharvest characteristics of cut rose 'Matador' and 'Dolcetto' cultivars. Cut roses were treated with three preservative solutions: sodium hypochlorite (Cl), sodium hypochlorite + aminoisobutyric acid (ClA), and sodium hypochlorite + aminoisobutyric acid + 1-methylcyclopropene (ClAM), subsequently exposed to ethylene. We found that all treatments extended the vase life and improved the postharvest quality in the both rose cultivars. Among these, ClAM was the most effective treatment solution, significantly extending the vase life by 4.3 days in 'Matador' (SENS) and 4.7 days in 'Dolcetto' (INSENS) compared with control flowers. ClAM also effectively inhibited bacterial growth in the vase, enhanced solution uptake, and maintained the initial fresh weight and a positive water balance for longer periods. In addition, we found that ClAM strongly inhibited ethylene-induced petal senescence by suppressing the transcript levels of RhACS2 and RhACO1 in the both rose cultivars. These results suggest that ClAM can be used in a wide range of rose cultivars to prolong the longevity of cut roses due to its combination effects with inhibition of ethylene damage and improvement of water absorption.
