A suppressor of axillary meristem maturation promotes longevity in flowering plants
Nature Plants, 2020 Abstract Post embryonic development and growth of flowering plants are for a large part determined by the activity and maturation state of stem cell niches formed in the axils of leaves, the so-called axillary meristems (AMs) 1,2 . Here we identify a new role for the Arabidopsis

Genetic Analysis of Cut-flower Longevity in Antirrhinum majus [PDF]
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2001 Genetics of Antirrhinum majus L. (snapdragon) cut flower postharvest longevity (PHL) was investigated by generation means analysis using a white short-lived inbred (WS) and white long-lived inbred (WL) to determine mode of inheritance and heritability.

POTENTIAL OF CHLORINE DIOXIDE TO EXTEND THE LONGEVITY OF CUT FLOWERS [PDF]
HortScience, 2006 The postharvest longevity of fresh-cut flowers is often limited by the accumulation of bacteria in vase water and flower stems. Aqueous chlorine dioxide is a strong biocide with potential application for sanitizing cut flower solutions. We evaluated the potential of chlorine dioxide to prevent the build-up of bacteria in vase water
