Pre- and post-harvest treatments to maintain quality and control diseases of greenhouse and nursery crop species

Evaluation of pre-and post-harvest treatments such as 1-methylcyclopropene as a means to successfully extend the shelf life of cut flowers. Results clearly demonstrated that treatment of 1-methylcyclopropene significantly delayed the senescence of cut flowers, especially for carnation, rose and gerbera.
