Benzyladenine (BA) - For intact Lilium longiflorum Thumb. (Easter lily) plants, BA
sprays were very effective in preventing leaf yellowing at concentrations as low as 25 mg· L-1 (7).
Leaf senescence also declined when sprays containing BA were applied to an Asiflorum lily (5).
Leaf yellowing of Dieffenbachia maculata 'Perfection' plants during dark storage was reduced
somewhat by a prestorage spray application of BA at 100 mg·L-1 (lS).
