dc.description.abstract | Improving storage performance of cut flowers is particularly useful for flowers that are short-lived, and whose display period in the field is brief. Here we report on factors affecting postharvest performance of Narcissus tazetta L. ‘Karaburun’, which is a field-grown narcissus in Turkey. A factorial experiment was performed, in which the cut narcissi were held dry in modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) or wrapped paper at 0±0.5°C for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 weeks, and were pulsed with 0.25 mM silver thiosulfate (STS) or distilled water (control) either before or after storage. Vase life of 7 days was reduced with increasing storage duration. The degree of the decrease in vase life depended on the type of storage treatment imposed. At 5 weeks of storage, wrapped paper was as good as MAP for maintaining vase life (4.7-5.6 days), when a pre-storage pulsing treatment was applied. However, at 6 weeks of storage, the MAP-stored flowers had a better vase life (5.3 days) than those stored in paper (4 days). The vase life of the 6-week paper-stored flowers was even less (2.1 days), when the pulsing treatment was applied after storage. By contrast, at 6 weeks of storage, the vase life of the MAP-stored flowers was the same (4.9-5 days), regardless of the time of application of the pulsing treatment pre- or post-storage. In conclusion, the best treatment for N. tazetta L. ‘Karaburun’ was MAP storage, combined with STS pulsing, applied either pre- or post-storage. © 2019 International Society for Horticultural Science.
