Abstract

This study was conducted with the purpose of examining the suitability of Euphorbia jolkinii Boiss. as cut flower, so that it may be introduced as a new ornamental crop. For this purpose, effect of various holding solutions on vase solution uptake rate, vase life, and relative fresh weight of cut flowering branches of E. jolkinii was examined. After harvest, cut branches were treated with 10, 50, and 100 ㎎·L-1 of 8-hydroxyquinoline sulfate (8-HQS), 0.1 and 0.2 mM of silver thiosulfate (STS), Chrysal, and Floralife. The cut branches of E. jolkinii were placed under the environmental conditions maintained at air temperature of 22.6°C, relative humidity of 45%, and 9/15h photoperiod that was controlled using fluorescent lamps (light intensity of 9.89 µmol·m-2·s-1). A holding solution containing 10 ㎎·L-1 8-HQS was found to be significantly effective for vase solution uptake rate compared to control, 50 ㎎·L-1 8-HQS, and 100 ㎎·L-1 8-HQS treatments. However, no significant difference was found in vase life between the branches treated with 10 ㎎·L-1 8-HQS holding solution and branches of the control group. Increasing holding solution concentrations of STS was found to have negative effect on the vase life of cut E. jolkinii branches. Relative fresh weight of cut E. jolkinii branches were significantly decreased by two commercial holding solutions, Chrysal and Floralife. It is expected that these results would aid further studies on utilization of E. jolkinii as cut flower crop.
