Abstract

Mikrobiyal kontaminasyon nedeniyle vazo ömrü kısalan gerberalarda, antimikrobiyal aktiviteye sahip olduğu bilinen lens solüsyonları ile vazo ömrünün iyileştirilmesi amacıyla yapılan bu çalışmada, bitkisel materyal olarak Gerbera jamesonii Bolus ex Hooker f. türüne ait 'Amulet' çeşidi kullanılmıştır. Vazo solüsyonu olarak; 300 mgL-1 sitrik asit, 10 gL-1 sakkaroz ve 4 farklı dozda (0.5 mlL-1, 1 mlL-1, 2 mlL-1 ve 5 mlL-1) iki farklı lens solüsyonu içeren (Bio True ve Aqua Fresh) solüsyonlar ile yalnız 10gL-1 sakkaroz (negatif kontrol), 300mgL-1 sitrik asit ile 10gL-1 sakkaroz (kontrol) içeren solüsyonlar kullanılmıştır. Bitkilerde çiçek sapı kalınlığı, oransal taze ağırlık, günlük ortalama vazo solüsyonu alımı, toplam vazo solüsyonu alımı, vazo ömrü, vazo solüsyonundaki mikrobiyal aktivite ve vazo solüsyonunun pH değeri belirlenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda en uzun vazo ömrü 15.22 gün ile 2.0 Bio uygulamasında bulunmuştur. Bu uygulama vazo ömrünü negatif kontrole göre 3.56 gün, kontrole göre 3.02 gün kadar arttırmıştır. 2.0 Aqua ile 2.0 Bio uygulamaları arasında vazo ömrü bakımından istatistiki açıdan bir fark bulunmamakla birlikte, her iki uygulamanın bitkilerde oransal taze ağırlık, günlük ortalama vazo solüsyon alımı ve toplam vazo solüsyon alımını iyileştirdiği ve vazo solüsyonundaki mikrobiyal gelişimi azalttığı saptanmıştır. Çalışma sonuçları göstermiştir ki lens solüsyonları kesme çiçeklerde vazo ömrünü arttırmada kullanılabilecek alternatif koruyucu maddeler olabilir.

The Effects of Different Lens Solutions on the Vase Life of Gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii cv. Amulet)

Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of lens solutions known to have antimicrobial activity on the vase life of gerberas. 'Amulet' variety of Gerbera jamesonii Bolus ex Hooker f. was used as plant material. As a vase solution, 300 mgL-1 citric acid, 10 gL-1 sucrose and 4 different doses (0.5 mlL-1, 1 mlL-1, 2 mlL-1 ve 5 mlL-1) of two different lens solutions (Aqua Fresh with Bio True) and only 10gL-1 sucrose (negative control), 300mgL-1 citric acid and 10gL-1 sucrose (control) were used. Flower stem diameter, relative fresh weight, daily solution uptake, total solution uptake, vase life, microbial activity, and pH value of the vase solution were determined. The longest vase life was found in 2.0 Bio (15.22 days). This treatment increased the vase life by 3.56 days compared to the negative control and by 3.02 days compared to the control. 2.0 Bio was in the same statistical group with the 2.0 Aqua in terms of vase life. They also increased the relative fresh weight, daily solution uptake, and total solution uptake and decreased the microbial growth in vase solutions. The results of the study showed that lens solutions can be alternative preservatives that can be used to increase the vase life of cut flowers.
