Abstract

This experiment was conducted to clarify the effect of silver thiosulfate (STS) pretreatment and several holding solutions on vase life of cut 'Blue Magic' iris (Iris hollandica). The pretreatment with a STS solution extended the vase life of flowers. A holding solution containing 3% (w/v) sucrose + 200 mg.L$^{-1}$ HQS + 100 mg.L$^{-1}$ BA was effective for high water balance, increased fresh weight, promoted flowering, and prolonged vase life of cut flowers. Distilled water and a holding solution containing ethephon promoted solution uptake, but shortened the vase life. Water balance of the flowers became negative at early days because of high transpiration rates.

본 연구는 절화 아이리스의 절화수명에 미치는 STS 전처리의 효과와 보존용액의 효과를 알아보기 위해 실시하였다. 절화 아이리스는 STS 전처리가 STS 무처리보다 수명이 길었다. 또한 절화 아이리스는 3% sucrose + 200mg.L$^{-1}$ HQS + 100mg.L$^{-1}$ BA 보존용액에 꽂았을 때 개화가 잘 되고 수명이 매우 길어 이 용액이 가장 우수한 아이리스의 절화 보존용액인 것으로 판단되었다. 이 보존용액에서는 수분균형이 계속 플러스 상태로 유지되며 생체중도 계속 증가되는 경향을 보였다. 증류수구와 ethephon처리구에서 흡수량이 대단히 많았음에도 불구하고 절화수명이 짧았던 원인은 증산량이 많아서 결국 수분균형이 일찍부터 마이너스로 떨어지기 때문이었으며, 절화의 노화지연과 수명연장을 위해서는 어떻게 수분균형을 플러스 방향으로 오랫동안 유지하는 가가 중요한 관건이라고 할 수 있겠다.
