[Study on exogenous hormones inducing parthenocarpy fruit growth and development and quality of Siraitia grosvenorii].

To explore the growth and development and analyze the quality of the parthenocarpy fruit induced by exogenous hormones of Siraitia grosvenorii. the horizontal and vertical diameter, volume of the fruit were respectively measured by morphological and the content of endogenous hormones were determined by ELISA. The size and seed and content of mogrosides of mature fruit were determined.

[Effect of Nutrient Solution in Soilless Cultivation on Growth, Antioxidase Activities and Amino Acid Contents of Nervilia fordii].

Objective: To select the best formula for soilless cultivation of Nervilia fordii.

Methods: Four different formulas of nutrient solution on growth,antioxidase activities and amino acid contents were investigated.

Results: The concentration of 1/2 lettuce nutrient solution formula was the most propitious for the growth of Nervilia fordii, the antioxidase activities and amino acid contents were increased in the treatment of nutrient solution,and the highest amino acid content was observed in 1/2 dose of green leafy vegetables nutrient solution formula.
