TL;DR: In this article, changes in the physical state of cellular water and its interrelations with carbohydrate metabolism were studied during preplanting storage of tulip bulbs (Tulipa gesneriana) (Apeldoorn) by using magnetic resonance imaging, light and scanning electron microscopy and high-performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Iron Toxicity Stress Causes Bronze Speckle, a Specific Physiological Disorder of Marigold (Tagetes erecta L.)
TL;DR: A specific physiological disorder, bronze speckle (J.P.A.'s nomenclature), was consistently induced in marigolds with Fe-DTPA (1 ppm) applied to a soilless medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between starch pattern indices and starch concentrations in four apple cultivars
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between the starch pattern index (SPI) and starch concentration in the fruit during maturation and ripening was investigated, showing that the relationship was curvilinear for all cultivars.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gibberellin-mediated changes in carbohydrate metabolism during flower stalk elongation in tulips
TL;DR: The results indicate that de novo biosynthesis of gibberellins is a requirement for expression of high acid invertase activity during the rapid elongation phase in tulip internodes which enables cleavage of imported sucrose to hexoses that can be readily utilized in elongating cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bulb growth in lily regenerated in vitro
Merel Langens-Gerrits,H. Lilien-Kipnis,T. Croes,William B. Miller,C. Kollfiffel,G.J. de Klerk +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that bulblet growth in vitro is an important factor for rapid growth of lily bulblets after planting and the contact area of the explant with the medium plays a key role in determining bulbleT weight.
