Abstract The xylem undergoes physiological changes in response to various environmental conditions during the process of plant growth. To understand these physiological changes, it is extremely important to observe the transport of xylem. In this study, the distribution and structure of vascular bundle in Lilium lancifolium were observed using the method of semithin section. Methods for introducing a fluorescent tracer into the xylem of the stems were evaluated. Then, the transport rule of 5(6)-Carboxyfluorescein diacetate (CFDA) in the xylem of the stem of L. lancifolium was studied by fluorescence dye in live cells tracer technology. The results showed… More >

Abstract Lilium is an ornamental species which production and commercialization have a greater daily economical importance because of its acceptance by the market. Crop of Lilium is currently under an intensive production system based upon an indiscriminate use of chemical fertilizers, without precise plant nutrition recommendations. Because of this, producers are forced to set up sustainable production processes without affecting the quality of the product, since worldwide consumers prefer products that have been correctly harvested. Objectives of this study were to assess the main effects and the interactions of phosphorus applications and the inoculation with Glomus fasciculatum and Bacilllus… More >

Abstract Among commercial plants utilized in floriculture in Mexico State, Lilium species have a great production volume, with problems associated with high use of chemical fertilizers, soil salinity and water pollution. Sustainable strategies are required to minimize impacts on the ecosystem without diminishing quality products. Main effects and the interactions of phosphorous, Glomus fasciculatum and Bacillus subtilis were evaluated under greenhouse conditions. Twelve treatments arranged in a 2x3x2 factorial with 10 replications by treatment were studied. Results showed that G. fasciculatum combined with 22 μg/ml P and B. subtilis had a positive correlation with root colonization, root dry weight, stem diameter, More >

Abstract The micropropagation of Lilium longiflorum requires adequate equipment which may not be afforded by small laboratories or producers. In this work we compared traditional methodology with a protocol that included easily available elements to sterilize materials and culture media, together with addition of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂ ) into the nutrient media as chemical sterilizer. A series of H₂O₂ concentrations (0.005, 0.010, 0.015 and 0.020% p/v) was used to control contamination during in vitro establishment and subsequent cultivation; the explant organogenic response was also examined and compared to the traditional micropropagation technique. The level of culture contamination was within… More >
