Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation L. ledebourii shows high pollen viability (88.5%).
- Observation L. ledebourii shows pollen germination rates of 77.3%.
- Observation Crosses of L. ledebourii with commercial cultivars gave variable fruit formation and growth.
- Observation Crosses of L. ledebourii with commercial cultivars had varying success rates in obtaining viable seeds.
- Intervention effect Cut-style pollination was ineffective in certain commercial cultivars.
- Mechanism Cut-style pollination in certain commercial cultivars indicates pre- and post-fertilization barriers.
- Intervention effect Sucrose and NAA concentrations significantly influenced the survival and enlargement of Brindisi maternal-parent ovary slices.
- Intervention effect Optimal ovule germination was observed with 3% sucrose combined with 0.1 mg/L NAA.
- Intervention effect Ovule germination with 3% sucrose and 0.2 mg/L NAA ranked second after the optimal 0.1 mg/L NAA treatment.
- Observation Histology showed ovule degeneration and failed seed formation in specific crosses with post-fertilization barriers.
- Recommendation Genetic divergence, ploidy levels and other factors should be considered in interspecies Lilium crosses and hybridization.
