In: Zagazig Journal of Agricultural Research 2007.v.34(1)Summary: Two pot experiments were carried out under the conditions of open field of the National Research Centre, Dokki, Giza, Egypt during the two successive seasons of 200212003 and 2003/2004 to study the effect of some growth regulators; namely, spermine(sp.) and paclobutrazol(pac.) on overcoming the harmful effects of drought on flowering and some physiological aspects of gladiolus plants. Drought has been found to cause a significant reduction in the spike length and number of florets per spike, while the time of vase life was significantly increased under decreasing water supply as compared with those normally irrigated.
