SummaryThe effects of nitrogen (N) application, irrigation method, stage of crop maturity, potassium:nitrogen (K:N) ratio, and calcium (Ca) application on post-harvest discolouration of cut Iceberg lettuce (Lactuca sativa cv. Saladin) were investigat

Models of the phases of juvenility, curd induction and curd growth, driven by temperature, were developed for Roscoff, Walcheren and Roscoff×Walcheren winter cauliflower types and were linked to enable prediction of the time of curd maturity. Becaus

SummaryA series of three experiments was conducted to determine the effects of temperature and lighting on bud initiation and flower expression in lavender. A period of nine weeks at 4°C was shown to satisfy the vernalization requirement for all pla

SummarySome attributes of “forced” narcissus bulbs – in particular, the length of cold storage needed to achieve flower cropping within a set time in the glasshouse – vary from year to year. These variations may be due to differences in tempe

Two glasshouse experiments studied the effect of moisture stress on head and postharvest characters of broccoli. The work demonstrated that moisture stress occurring during head growth affected the postharvest shelf life of broccoli heads. The stage

SummaryData from three experiments with field-grown narcissus, starting in 1995, 1996 and 1997 and grown for two years, were used to develop simple descriptive relationships predicting crop timing, flower number and bulb yield. Treatments were design

SummaryYield of pepino (Solanum muricatum) is often low due to deficient pollination and fertilization. Genetic parthenocarpy in pepino is conferred by the dominant gene P and circumvents the need for successful pollination and fertilization. Two fam

SummaryA simulation model was proposed to predict changes in apex development during the curd induction phase of winter cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis L.). The model included a continuous asymmetric function for temperature based on a g

SummaryThree experiments with field-grown narcissus ‘Carlton’, each lasting two years, were set up starting in 1995, 1996 and 1997. In each experiment there were 12 treatments, consisting of all combinations of two pre-planting storage temperatur

The possible impact of global rises in atmospheric CO2 concentration and temperature on the growth and development of French beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) was examined using growth cabinets. Five CO2 concentrations of 350, 450, 550, 650 and 750 vpm and
