The effects of substrate and frequency of irrigation on growth, yield, quality and gas exchange of Gerbera
1995
Nakhle Fakhri, M.
The response of three varieties of gerbera plants, Gerbera jamesonii cvs. Fame, Rosabella and Sunspot cultivated in bags and grown on three substrates, perlite, peat:perlite 1:1 and pumice, was studied in the Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Chania in Crete. The purpose was to investigate the performance and suitability of these substrates for soilless culture, their effect on plant growth, yield and quality of flower production, as well as the effect of irrigation treatment, water and nutrient supply along the growing cycle. The effect on photosynthetic rate Pn, stomatal conductance gs, vapour pressure deficit VPD, leaf transpiration E, leaf water potential, soil water potential and crop coefficient K=ETa?To were studied.
