Abstract
This study was conducted in the physiology lab of the Department of Horticulture / Faculty of Agriculture / University of Dohuk during the period from 3^rd of November 2009 to 20^th of March 2010 to test the effects of preservation the flowers of extract of liquorice root at (0، 2.5، 5 g.l^-1) and with sucrose at (0، 0.5، 1 g.l^-1) on vase life، and some characteristic chemicals Dendranthema grandiflorum flower. Results showed that the highest increasing percentage founded at 1g.l^-1 sucrose reached 1.63%, 10.15%, 9.18%, 5.66 %, 2.49%, 2.84%, 1.99%, 2.58% and 11.94 day for nitrogen percentage، protein percentage، carbohydrate percentage، C/N ratio، α- carotene، β – carotene، Astaxanthin، zeaxanthin and vase life، also the extract of liquorice root caused significantly increase on nitrogen percentage، protein percentage، carbohydrate percentage، C/N ratio- β carotene، α - carotene، Astaxanthin zeaxanthin and vase life، compared with non treated flowers the highest increasing where founded with high level 5g.l^-1، all interactions between factors had significantly effect on all characters where studies.
