The development of Easter lily Lilium longiflorum Thunb.
'Ace' bulblets from scales was used to study the influence of scale
pre-cooling, growing temp, and daylength on scale initiation,
scale "filling" (bulbing), and scale leaf formation. The development
of 'Croft', 'Ace', and 'Nellie White' daughter bulbs in field-grown
yearlings was also...
Greenhouse-grown, September-harvested Lilium longiflorum cv. 'Nellie white' bulbs were used to determine temperature requirements during 5 pre-bloom and 1 post-bloom phases of development each of 1 month's duration. Plantes were subjected to 3 air temperatures(24°day/ 18°C night, 18°/13° and 13°/10°) in combination with soil temperatures at 30°, 24°, and equal...
A study was conducted to characterize the vesicular-arbuscular (VA) mycorrhizal fungi of commercially grown Easter lily. Monthly field soil and root samples were collected from March through September, 1975, from five fields in the coastal area of southern Oregon and northern California. Soil sievings were inoculated onto clover, onion and...
