Abstract

Lily is popular flower, it can be used as cut flower and potted plant. It has colorful flower, long vase life and fragrance. This research was conducted to study morphology, chromosome number and crossability of potted, cut flower and wild lily. Morphology of 4 varieties of cut flower, 4 varieties of potted lily and one wild species, Lilium primulinum Baker var. burmanicum Stearn was conducted. The results showed that characteristics such as plant height, leaf shape, flower and flowering period of each variety in this study were different. Chromosome number of Buzzer, Tiny Bee, Tiny Invader, Tiny Rocket, and wild lily was 2n = 24 whereas those of Nashville, Nova Zembla and Saronno was 2n = 36 and Caesars Palace was 2n = 48. Self - and cross - pollinated among cut flower, potted and species as well as reciprocal cross, were made. Self - pollinated could be made in two crosses and cross - pollinated within potted lily could be made in 9 crosses. Whereas cross - pollinated within cut flower lily could be done in only one cross. Cross - pollinated between potted and cut flower lily could be done in 4 crosses and reciprocal were 6 crosses. Lastly, crosses between potted and cut flower lily with L. primulinum var. burmanicum. could be made in 5 crosses. Seed germination was found in one variety and one species of self - pollinated cross and 16 crosses of cross - pollinated and reciprocal cross of potted lily, cut flower lily groups and L. primulinum var. burmanicum.
