摘要:
The invention provides novel compositions and methods for storage and delivery of pollen to a female reproductive part of a recipient plant. The pollen storage composition provided includes at least one perlite particle and pollen. The methods provided include storing the pollen storage composition and applying the pollen storage composition to at least a first female reproductive part of a recipient plant, thereby pollinating the female reproductive part with the pollen from the donor plant.
摘要:
The present invention describes a method for treating one or more cut flowers each including a stem, possibly leaves and a flower bud, said method comprising—arranging one or more cut flowers in an impregnation solution so that at least a portion of the stem of said one or more cut flowers are immersed in the impregnation solution, but where the flower bud is free from impregnation solution; and—applying vacuum impregnation or pressure impregnation, preferably vacuum 10 impregnation, to the impregnation solution when said at least portion of the stem are immersed into the impregnation solution.
摘要:
Disclosed is an edible composition for coating fresh harvest products and a harvest product coated with said composition, to a method for coating an harvest product, and to the use of the edible composition for the preparation of a post-harvest fruit or vegetable item with prolonged shelf life and/or slower weight loss compared to a fruit or vegetable item which is not coated with the composition and to the use of the edible composition for the preparation of a post-harvest cut flower with prolonged vase life when coated with the composition compared to a comparable cut flower which is not coated with the composition.
摘要:
Stable compositions comprising 1-methylcyclopropene and a low volatility stabilizer, and methods of using the composition, are provided. Methods for using the compositions in delaying the maturation of plants, such as fruits, vegetables, and flowers are also provided.
摘要:
Providing a method for generating and releasing 1-MCP gas from a complex carrier through the use of a 1-MCP generator that enables the application of at least one physical, releasing force to a carrier complex and/or mixture comprising water and the carrier complex, or the interaction of steam with a carrier complex and/or mixture comprising water and the carrier complex, over a determined period of time.
摘要:
Disclosed is a composition for coating flower heads to prevent or slow down, infection of flower heads during storage and transport to final retail, and a use of the coating composition. The disclosure also relates to a flower coated with said composition. The disclosure is especially suitable for flower heads of roses and rose buds.
摘要:
Cyclodextrin compositions including one or more radiation polymerizable monomers and a cyclodextrin inclusion complex, the cyclodextrin inclusion complex including a cyclodextrin compound and an olefinic inhibitor of an ethylene generation in produce, are coated onto packaging materials and cured. Treated containers and treated package inserts having the cured cyclodextrin compositions are useful in packaging of respiring plant materials.
摘要:
A method for retarding an ethylene response in a plant or plant part comprising the step of contacting the plant or plant part with an ethylene response retarding amount of benzocyclopropene and/or naphtho[b]cyclopropane.
摘要:
Cyclodextrin compositions, including a hydrophobic carrier and a cyclodextrin complex, are formed and disposed on a variety of substrates using conditions that avoid substantial loss of the complexed compound from the cyclodextrin complex, even where the complexed compound is a gas a common ambient temperatures (e.g. 20° C.). Flexographic printing is particularly useful for disposing the cyclodextrin compositions on one or more substrates. Substrates treated with the cyclodextrin complexes are useful for subsequent release of the complexed compound.
摘要:
Provided are a freshness retaining agent that can be obtained by a simple method and exhibits excellent adsorption performance and antibacterial activity, a gas purification device including the freshness retaining agent, and a gas purification system. The freshness retaining agent is formed by adhering tea catechins to a surface and/or an inside of charcoal powders and adhering the charcoal powders to each other with clay interposed between the charcoal powders, thereby exhibiting excellent adsorption performance and antibacterial activity.
