Effect of growth regulators on the postharvest longevity of leaves of sea lavender (Limonium latifolium (Sm.) Kuntze)

Abstract.

Conditioning of the leaves in gibberellic acid or placing without conditioning them in benzyladenine at concentrations of 25 and 50 mg/dm³ extended the postharvest longevity of leaves of the Limonium latifolium. Conditioning of the leaves in gibberellic acid at the concentration of 25 and 50 mg/dm³ influences the inhibiting effect on chlorophyll degradation.

Keywords: sea lavender, leaves longevity, gibberellic acid, benzyladenine
