to investigate effect of calcium and growth medium on lilium (asiatic hybrid lilium bulbs “tresor” cultivar) and nutrients uptake, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted by three levels of calcium in nutrient solution (2, 4 and 6 mm*) and five growth media (100% perlite, 70% perlite + 30% cocopeat, 50% perlite + 50% cocopeat, 30% perlite + 70% cocopeat, 100% ...

Two new records of Penicillium from blue moldy bulbs of lily are reported in Korea. The Korean isolates of P. albocoremium (Frisvad) Frisvad and P. tulipae Overy and Frisvad were phylogenetically identical to the reference species based on DNA sequence of the β-tubulin gene. P. albocoremium and P. tulipae are described and illustrated.

FOUR KNOWN FLAVONOIDS quercetin 3-O-β-D-rutinoside (Q3Rut), myricetin 3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside (M3Gal), quercetin 3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside (Q3Gal) and quercetin 3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (Q3Glc), for the first time were isolated from aerial parts of Euphorbia microsciadia. The chemical structure of them was elucidated on the basis of 1 and 2 D-NMR spectra and different spectroscopic techniques....

The product of myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase, EC 5.5.1.4, from mature pollen of Lilium longiflorum Thunb., cv Ace (Easter lily) and that of myo-inositol kinase, EC 2.7.1.64, from wheat germ has been identified as 1l-myo-inositol-1-phosphate by gas chromatography of its trimethylsilyl-methyl phosphate derivative on a glass capillary column bearing a chiral phase.
