The anti-senescence biogenic polyamines (PAs) putrescine (Put), spermidine(Spd) and spermine (Spm) are involved in plant growth processes andresponses to stress. The physiological mechanism of exogenous Put to affectthe senescence of cut lisianthus flowers during vase life was investigated.Fresh cut lisianthus flowers were treated with distilled water (control), 0.5, 1and 2 mM Put and then held at 25 ◦C up to 12 days. Exogenous Put supply at2 mM extended vase life, which was associated with reduced electrolyteleakage and MDA content. Put treatment also reduced activity of lipoxygenase(LOX), is responsible for membrane lipid peroxidation. Put treatment also enhancedactivities of catalase (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) anddecreased H2O2 accumulation during vase life. Thus, exogenous Put supplycould maintain membrane integrity by increasing antioxidant system activity,thereby retarding the senescence of cut lisianthus flower during vase life.
