Abstract excerpt
Interspecific hybrids between Lilium longiflorum (L, 2n = 2x = 24) and Lilium rubellum (R, 2n = 2x = 24) were produced with the aim of transferring desirable horticultural traits from L. rubellum to L. longiflorum. All F1 hybrids (LR, 2n = 2x = 24) and BC1 individuals (LLR, 2n = 3x = 36) were phenotypically uniform for plant height, flowering time, leaf shape and flower colour. The BC1 plants were, in spite of...
