Abstract

Objectives: The use of organic and readily available compounds is effective in reducing harmful environmental effects and reducing the cost of product production. The purpose of this research was to investigate the role of compost obtained from Lemna minor and polyamine putrescine in improving the vegetative and physiological characteristics of Iranian hyacinth.
Materials and Methods: The experiment was conducted as a factorial in a completely randomized design in four replications. The first factor was compost (0, 25, 50 and 75%) and the second factor was different concentrations of putrescine (0, 1 and 2 mM). .
Results: According to the obtained results, the highest number of flowers was recorded in the control tratment, 25% compost without putricin, the control substrate with 2 mM putricin and 75% compost without putricin. The highest number of leaves was observed in control and 1 mM potricin, 75% compost in both 1 and 2 mM potricin. The number of bulblet formed in the control bed, 25% compost in combination with 2 mM putricin and 50% compost in the presence of one and two millimolar putricin was the maximum. The highest amount of carotenoid was recorded in 50% compost in combination with 1 mM potricin.
Conclusion:
Despite the high vegetative and reproductive traits including the number of flowers and leaves in the control, the results of this research showed that compost in different percentages including 50 and 75% and in combination with one and two millimolar putricin improved some hyacinth traits
