Cross compatibility between Lilium x fomolongi group and Lilium.brownii

초록

Lilium is an ornamental plant with great worldwide commercial importance. Obtaining intra-and interspecific hybrids is a known approach to introduce new traits into the commercial groups and cultivars. However, considering the incompatibility of many intra-and interspecific crosses, resulting from pre-fertilization and post-fertilization barriers, various methods have been employed to obtain new hybrids. L. longiflorum is a Lilium group with great marketability, which exhibits incompatibility in many crosses. Here, we have tried to obtain interspecific L. x fomolongi x L. brownii and L. longiflorum x L. brownii hybrids using the combination of ovary slice and ovule culture. In the study, we obtained some interspecific hybrids in Eorayon 2ho x B (7), and Augusta x B (7), as well as Augusta x KHR, Afjw x KDD, and Augusta x KDD crosses. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported successful study obtaining L. xfomolongi x L. brownii hybrids. Evaluating the morphological characteristics of the hybrids obtained, as well as studying the traits introduced from parents, can be topics for future studies
