The influence of flower morphology and nectar quality on the longevity of a parasitoid biological control agent

open access: yesBiological Control, 2006
Conservation biological control aims to enhance the efficacy of arthropod biological control agents, such as parasitoids, partly by providing them with access to floral nectar.

The use of acetaldehyde to control carnation flower longevity

Plant Growth Regulation, 1999
Acetaldehyde is the causal agent of ethanol-induced longevity increases in carnation cut flowers. It increases the vase life of cut carnation flowers by at least 50%. The capacity of acetaldehyde to regulate carnation flower senescence was therefore investigated. Ethylene formation was reduced or inhibited as a result of acetaldehyde application. There

Petunia flower longevity: the role of sensitivity to ethylene

Physiologia Plantarum, 1993
Two petunia (Petunia hybrida L.) lines, differing in their flower longevity, were studied, Similar tendencies were found in the changes of corolla fresh weight, electrolyte leakage and membrane microviscosity over the life spans of the two lines. Ethylene production by flowers of the two lines showed a similar pattern, peaking at 3 nl flower−1 h−1 ...

Evolution of pollination-induced plasticity of flower longevity

2023
Abstract In many plants, pollen deposition or removal can lead to early flower senescence, while flowers will live longer when pollination is excluded, and the strength of this pollination-induced plasticity of flower longevity varies across populations.
