    plants Review Bulb Dormancy In Vitro—Fritillaria meleagris: Initiation, Release and Physiological Parameters Marija Markovi´c*, Milana Trifunovi´cMomˇcilov , Branka Uzelac , Sladana¯ Jevremovi´c and Angelina Suboti´c Department of Plant Physiology, Institute for Biological Research “Siniša Stankovi´c“—NationalInstitute of the Republic of Serbia, University of Belgrade, Bulevar Despota Stefana 142, 11060 Belgrade, Serbia; [email protected] (M.T.M.); [email protected] (B.U.); [email protected] (S.J.); [email protected] (A.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: In ornamental geophytes, conventional vegetative propagation is not economically feasible due to very slow development and ineffective methods. 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. This review focuses on recent findings in the area of Citation: Markovi´c,M.; Momˇcilov, bulb dormancy initiation and release in fritillaries, with particular emphasis on the effect of plant M.T.; Uzelac, B.; Jevremovi´c,S.; growth regulators and low-temperature pretreatment on dormancy release in relation to induction of Suboti´c,A.

In this study, we investigated the effect of 1 soaking bulbs in GA3 solution (1, 2, and 3 mg L− ) combined with low-temperature treatment (7 ◦C) on breaking the dormancy of in vitro bulbs. Sugar status (total soluble sugars, glucose, and fructose content) was analyzed in different parts of the sprouted bulbs. The results showed that the soluble sugar concentration was highest in bulbs soaked in GA3. The main sugar in fritillary bulbs was glucose, while fructose content was much lower. Glucose concentration dramatically increased after bulb chilling (7 ◦C), and its accumulation was predominantly detected in the lower sprout portion during the first weeks of sprouting.

  • Diversity of Nectar Amino Acids in the Fritillaria(Liliaceae)
    www.nature.com/scientificreports Corrected: Author Correction OPEN Diversity of nectar amino acids in the Fritillaria (Liliaceae) genus: ecological and evolutionary implications Katarzyna Roguz 1*, Andrzej Bajguz 2, Magdalena Chmur2, Agnieszka Gołębiewska2, Agata Roguz3 & Marcin Zych 1* Nectar is considered to be a primary food reward for most pollinators. It mostly contains sugars, but also has amino acids. The signifcance of the concentration and composition of amino acids in nectar is often less understood than that of its volume, sugar concentration and composition. However, there is a trend towards a broader approach in ecological research, which helps to understand nectar properties in an ecological context. The genus Fritillaria, exhibiting great diversity in fower morphology, nectar composition, and dominant pollinators, allows for the possibility to study some of the above. We studied the concentration and composition of amino acids in the nectar of 38 Fritillaria species attracting diferent groups of pollen vectors (bees, fies, passerines, and hummingbirds). The fowers of fritillaries produced nectar with a varying composition and concentration of amino acids. These diferences were mostly associated with the pollinator type. The nectar of passerine bird-pollinated species was rich in amino acids, whereas humming bird-pollinated produced low amino acid nectar. Contrary to previous reports nectar of the insect-pollinated species did not contain a higher amount of proline. Two non-protein amino acids, sarcosine and norvaline, were detected in the foral nectar for the frst time. Nectar is the most crucial foral reward for animal pollinators1. Primarily, it is a sugar solution composed of sucrose, fructose and glucose, in varying proportions.

  • Southern Garden History Plant Lists
    Southern Plant Lists Southern Garden History Society A Joint Project With The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation September 2000 1 INTRODUCTION Plants are the major component of any garden, and it is paramount to understanding the history of gardens and gardening to know the history of plants. For those interested in the garden history of the American south, the provenance of plants in our gardens is a continuing challenge. A number of years ago the Southern Garden History Society set out to create a ‘southern plant list’ featuring the dates of introduction of plants into horticulture in the South. This proved to be a daunting task, as the date of introduction of a plant into gardens along the eastern seaboard of the Middle Atlantic States was different than the date of introduction along the Gulf Coast, or the Southern Highlands. To complicate maters, a plant native to the Mississippi River valley might be brought in to a New Orleans gardens many years before it found its way into a Virginia garden. A more logical project seemed to be to assemble a broad array plant lists, with lists from each geographic region and across the spectrum of time. The project’s purpose is to bring together in one place a base of information, a data base, if you will, that will allow those interested in old gardens to determine the plants available and popular in the different regions at certain times. This manual is the fruition of a joint undertaking between the Southern Garden History Society and the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. In choosing lists to be included, I have been rather ruthless in expecting that the lists be specific to a place and a time.

  • Floral Fragrances. a Day in the Life of a Linalool Molecule
    Plant Species Biology (1999) 14, 95Ð120 NEW PERSPECTIVES IN POLLINATION BIOLOGY: FLORAL FRAGRANCES A day in the life of a linalool molecule: Chemical communication in a plant-pollinator system. Part 1: Linalool biosynthesis in ßowering plants ROBERT A. RAGUSO* and ERAN PICHERSKY *Department of Biological Sciences, University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC 29208, USA. Department of Biology, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109Ð1048, USA Abstract The monoterpene alcohol, linalool, is present in the ßoral fragrance of diverse plant fami- lies and is attractive to a broad spectrum of pollinators, herbivores and parasitoids. Floral emission of linalool has evolved de novo in the fragrant, moth-pollinated annual Clarkia breweri (Gray) Greene (Onagraceae) through a combination of up-regulation and ectopic expression of its biosynthetic enzyme, linalool synthase (LIS), in conjunction with allo- metric size increases in all ßoral organs. Linalool synthase activity and linalool emissions are 1000-fold lower in a sibling species, C. concinna (Fischer & Meyer) Greene, that is diurnally pollinated. Linalool synthase expression is spatially and temporally regulated during C. breweri ßower development, immediately precedes free linalool emission and is absent from nonßoral tissues. Its activity is highest in the style, but most of the linalool product appears to be converted to the pyranoid and furanoid linalool oxides. The LIS structural gene is a member of the terpene synthase gene family, sharing sequence iden- tity with two discrete classes, represented by limonene synthase (LMS) and copalyl pyrophosphate synthase (CPS). Genetic crosses between C. breweri and C. concinna indi- cate that strong linalool emission segregates as a dominant mendelian trait, whereas the inheritance of linalool oxide formation is more complex, suggesting epistatic biosynthetic pathway interactions.
