Studies were conducted on cut Asiatic Lilium cv. Elite to assess the effectiveness of various floral preservatives as pulsing treatments for delaying senescence and prolonging vase life. Uniform spikes of lilium at bud colour break stage were brought to the laboratory in the morning and placed in 8 different pulsing solutions consisting of sucrose (Suc) 5%, aluminium sulphate (AS) 400 ppm, silver thio-sulphate (STS) 2.0 mM and citric acid (CA) 1000 ppm alone and in combination with sucrose. Distilled water without any chemical served as the control. Among individual treatments, STS 2.0 mM maintained better water relations and flower quality compared to others. STS also showed superiority over other treatments when combined with Suc 5% by providing largest flower size (16.74 cm) with maximum vase life (17.29 days) owing to most-favourable water relations parameters.Keywords

The present study was under taken to analyze the genetic diversity in fifty seven genotypes of gladiolus through multivariate analysis. The genotypes were grouped into five different clusters with highest inter cluster distance reported between IV and V and lowest between II and IV. The highest intra cluster distance was observed within cluster II and lowest within cluster V. Based on cluster means, the important cluster was observed to be cluster IV for leaf breadth, number of days taken to sprouting, heading, colour bud show and opening of first floret, stem, spike and rachis diameter, equatorial and polar diameter of corm and spike length and cluster III for leaf length, number of leaves per plant and durability of floret. Hence, selection of parents from clusters III and IV could be utilized for hybridization with parents of other clusters to achieve more improvement in vigour and yield. The results of principal component analysis showed that first 3 principal component axes explained 68.77 per cent of total variation in the germplasm. The greater part of this variation was loaded from equatorial and polar diameter of corm, days taken to opening of 1st floret and colour bud show, spike and stem diameter.Keywords
