ShareEffects of temperature on the respiration and vase life of narcissus flowers.
Author(s) : CEVALLOS J. C., REID M. S.
Type of article: Periodical article
Summary
The authors tested the value of respiration rates of narcissus cut flowers, at different temperatures as a tool for predicting vase life after, respectively, 5 or 6 days of storage at those temperatures. Over the 0 to 12.5 °C temperature range, the flower respiration increased exponentially with increasing temperature. For both types, also, vase life after cold storage at different temperatures was highly correlated with respiration rate at the storage temperatures.
