Abstract
Several symptoms are described that characterize the extent of flower-bud blasting in tulips. The disorder could be induced by ethylene applied in concentrations of 0.3 ppm and higher during storage of the bulbs. When ethylene was applied late, the symptoms could be observed in most of the buds immediately after exposure. During subsequent storage in an ethylene-free environment, the injury often increased. When ethylene was applied early, symptoms of blasting appeared only after subsequent treatment for early flowering.
