Abstract

Two cultivars of Exacum affine, White Princess and Royal Dane, were grown under supplementary light conditions (70 and 100 μmol m-2 s-1). The higher light intensity reduced the production time and resulted in increased flower development during the post-production period in an interior environment. To test ethylene responses, the plants were sprayed with the anionic silver thiosulphate complex (STS) and then exposed to 3.5 μl l-1 ethylene or kept in an ethylene-free environment. The post-production quality and life of Exacum plants were reduced by the presence of exogenous ethylene. Inhibition of ethylene action improved post-production flower numbers even in the absence of ethylene. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.
