Comparative Morphology of the Leaf Epidermis in Fritillaria (Liliaceae) from China Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2009, 160, 93–109. With 91 figures Comparative morphology of the leaf epidermis in Fritillaria (Liliaceae) from China QIANG WANG†, SONG-DONG ZHOU†, XIAO-YAN DENG, QI ZHENG and XING-JIN HE* College of Life Sciences, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610064, China Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/botlinnean/article/160/1/93/2418345 by guest on 27 November 2020 Received 3 November 2007; accepted for publication 17 March 2008 The leaf epidermis of 16 species and one putative species of Fritillaria was examined using light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that the stomatal and other epidermal features were constant within species. Epidermal cells of Fritillaria under LM were usually polygonal and anticlinal cell walls were straight or curved. In a few species they were irregular, with sinuous anticlinal cell walls. The cuticular membrane of Fritillaria was usually striated, and the wax ornamentations were flaked, granular or concomitant. Based on leaf epidermal characteristics, the subdivision of Fritillaria is discussed, and the statistical t-test method was used to ascertain the significance level of the differences in the stomata of each species. All orientations of the stomatal poles in Fritillaria were the same, and this phenomenon was named ‘stomatal orientation’. The stomatal characteristics support the origin of section Fritillaria in China from two floristic elements. © 2009 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2009, 160, 93–109.

It can take several years until a new plant is formed and commercial profitability is achieved. Therefore, micropropagation techniques have been developed to increase the multiplication rate and thus shorten the multiplication and regeneration period. The majority of these techniques rely on the formation of new bulbs and their sprouting. Dormancy is one of the main limiting factors to speed up multiplication in vitro. Bulbous species have a period of bulb dormancy which enables them to survive unfavorable natural conditions. Bulbs grown in vitro also exhibit dormancy, which has to be overcome in order to allow sprouting of bulbs in the next vegetation period. During the period of dormancy, numerous physiological processes occur, many of which have not been elucidated yet. Understanding the process of dormancy will allow us to speed up and improve breeding of geophytes and thereby achieve economic profitability, which is very important for horticulture.

    SRGC ----- Bulb Log Diary ----- Pictures and text © Ian Young BULB LOG 18……………………………….6th May 2009 Tulips and Ipheion I am very pleased with the way that the tulips are looking in the narrow bed at the base of a south facing wall. They seem to be settling in so well that I think I will plant more outside this summer. I have a number of pots of tulips in the Frit house, (see bulb log 16) where they are also growing well but the stems are at least twice the height of those outside. I think the plan will be to plant most of them out and just keep a bulb or two under glass as an insurance against outside losses. Narcissus abscissus Narcissus nevadensis Also growing well outside are these two Narcissus raised from SRGC seed many years ago and I think I have the correct names for them. Both are very elegant trumpet daffodils. As they do not seem to be dividing at any rate I am hoping for a good seed set to help me increase my stock. Erythronium and Pond Sadly the peak flowering of the Erythroniums is over for another year but there are still a number of late flowering forms and species with flowers on. Looking across the bed at the top of the garden where I have been letting the Erythroniums naturalise under the larger Rhododendrons I am hopeful of a better seed set than I had last year when the weather at flowering time was terrible resulting in virtually no seeds. It has not been that good every day this year but at least the temperature was moderately better and I am watching carefully for signs of the seed pods turning upright and fattening.

I wish you all the best in the New Gardening Year and private life and I truly hope that you all will be satisfied with my bulbs this year as always. It is 20th Anniversary for my Export catalogue. I started with small list of 20 items in 1990. Now I could offer 900 names, but my catalogue isn’t from rubber, the same is with packing shed, so I was forced hardly check my offers and I striped out in the list item after item up to 597 names left. So if you very want something special offered in earlier years or even never before offered - you can ask and although I can’t promise but I will try to fulfil your wishes. Last year was not easy for me. In August, when I packed my orders, I thought that I would be happy if I would edit this one, Jubilee catalogue and it will be my last. Now I’m much more optimistic and I hope for more years ahead. May be in future I will make home-page and will print only modest list without pictures, but will see… In garden season was not easy, too.

  • Chloroplast Genomic Resources for Phylogeny and DNA Barcoding
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Chloroplast genomic resources for phylogeny and DNA barcoding: a case study on Fritillaria Received: 14 September 2017 Yu Bi1,2,3, Ming-fang Zhang1,2, Jing Xue1,2, Ran Dong3, Yun-peng Du1,2 & Xiu-hai Zhang1,2 Accepted: 4 January 2018 The genus Fritillaria comprises approximately 130 perennial herbaceous species. In the Pharmacopoeia Published: xx xx xxxx of the People’s Republic of China, the bulbs of 11 Fritillaria species are used in Chinese herbal medicines. However, the traditional methods of morphological classifcation cannot accurately identify closely related species of Fritillaria. Previous studies have attempted to identify these species with universal molecular markers, but insufcient phylogenetic signal was available. In this study, the complete chloroplast genomes of eight Fritillaria species were compared. The length of the eight Fritillaria chloroplast genomes ranges from 151,009 bp to 152,224 bp. A total of 136 SSR loci were identifed, including 124 polymorphic SSR loci. For large repeat sequences, 108 repeat loci and four types of repeats were observed. Ten highly variable regions were identifed as potential molecular markers. These SSRs, large repeat sequences and highly variable regions provide important information for the development of genetic markers and DNA fngerprints. Phylogenetic analyses showed that the topological structures of all data sets (except the IR regions) were in complete agreement and well resolved. Overall, this study provides comprehensive chloroplast genomic resources, which will be valuable for future studies of evolution and species identifcation in Fritillaria. The genus Fritillaria, in the family Liliaceae, includes approximately 130 species of perennial herbaceous fowers1,2.

BARANOVA THE ECOLOGO‐MORPHOLOGICAL PECULIARITIES OF THE UNDERGROUND ORGANS OF THE REPRESNTATIVES OF THE GENUS FRITILLARIA (LILIACEAE) ENGLISH TRANSLATION RUTH HASSON EDITED & COMPILED LAURENCE HILL 2008 THE ECOLOGICAL‐MORPHOLOGICAL PARTICULARITIES OF THE UNDERGROUND ORGANS OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE GENUS FRITILLARIA (LILIACEAE) M V BARANOVA English translation by RUTH HASSON Edited and compiled by LAURENCE HILL† First published in Botanicheski Zhurnal 1981 Foreword to the translation In the last twenty years DNA techniques have fundamentally changed our understanding of plant evolution such that many plant classifications have had to be re‐ written and the value placed on flower part reduced as they have been shown to evolve rapidly. However, traditional morphological systematic classification has not been replaced by these new techniques but enhanced as the true systematic value of a plants physical characteristic can be better understood. The Russian botanist Marina Baranova made meticulous observations of the underground structure of the bulbs of Liliaceae with particular emphasis on Lilium. In 1981 she published a detailed account of the ontogeny and annual bulb renewal of Fritillaria and made important recommendation on the taxonomy of the genus. An account of the phylogenetic relationships within Fritillaria was published by Nina Rønsted et al. in 2005 in which the close relationship of F. imperialis, F. pallidiflora, F. persica (F. libanotica) and F. sewerzowii was confirmed. Other work at Kew by Ilia Leitch on genome size fits closely with the findings of Baranova. The following is an English translation of Baranova’s 1981 paper.
