| Abstract | The effects of endogenous and exogenous C2H4 and C2H4 inhibitors on the postharvest leaf and flower quality of Oriental lily ‘Stargazer’ were investigated. Endogenous C2H4 was not produced by freshly harvested excised leaves or flowers. Treatment of freshly harvested excised flowers, buds, leaves, and intact cut stems with C2H4 concentrations as high as 10 µl·l−1 did not affect bud opening or longevity or the development of leaf yellowing. Therefore, treatment with anti-C2H4 compounds, such as silver thiosulfate (STS) and 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), did not improve the quality of the flowers. Data thus indicate that freshly harvested ‘Stargazer’ were not sensitive to C2H4. Sensitivity of ‘Stargazer’ to C2H4, however, increased dramatically following cold storage, as exposure of cold-stored stems to C2H4 concentrations as low as 0.3 µl·l−1 significantly affected bud opening. The development of leaf yellowing on cold-stored stems was not affected by the exogenous C2H4. Pretreating cold-stored stems with 1-MCP significantly reduced blasting of small buds that failed to develop due to carbohydrate depletion and reduced the percentage of buds that did not fully open. Concurrently, 1-MCP did not affect the quality of the leaves. These data indicate that sensitivity of cut lilies to C2H4 differs following cold storage and that 1-MCP is a more suitable anti-C2H4 compound than STS. Furthermore, studies on endogenous C2H4 production revealed that, while C2H4 was not detected in freshly harvested buds and leaves, it was produced by both following cold storage. The latter produced C2H4 at a higher rate than the former. Results of this study clearly indicate that there are two situations in which lilies will benefit from pretreatment with an anti-C2H4 compound (1) when cut stems contain buds that are marginally small for opening and (2) when cut stems will be cold stored before marketing. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
