Using embryo rescue, we generated an intergeneric hybrid between Chrysanthemum × morifolium ‘Maoyan’ and Artemisia japonica Thunb. Cytological tests confirmed that regenerated plantlets were all genuine hybrids possessing 45 chromosomes, with 27 chromosomes inherited from C. × morifolium (2n = 6x = 54) and the other 18 derived from A. japonica (2n = 4x = 36). Hybrid plant flowered normally. The shape...
In our earlier study, pre-fertilization barrier was one of the main factors causing the failure of the wide hybridization between Chrysanthemum grandiflorum ‘Yuhuaxingchen’ and C. nankingense, and seriously restricted the utilization of the excellent chrysanthemum germplasm, C. nankingense. In order to overcome the pre-fertilization barrier and obtain some hybrids, we carried out wide hybridization...
Chrysanthemum grandiflorum ‘Yuhuaxingchen’ is an important commercial chrysanthemum cultivar with excellent ornamental quality but low drought tolerance, whereas C. indicum has exceptional drought tolerance. In our earlier study, many hybrid seeds between them were obtained through interspecific hybridization. In the present study, we selected six putative hybrid lines with most drought tolerance...
Reproductive barriers often exist in the crosses between Dendranthema grandiflorum (Ramat.) Kitamura and its wild species and seriously result in low seed set, consequently reducing breeding efficiency. For the purpose of revealing the factors leading to low seed set, we investigated pollen viability, germination behavior of pollen grains on stigmas and embryo development in the crosses between D. grandiflorum...
The karyotypes and meiotic behaviour of six Chrysantheminae species are investigated. Pyrethrum coccineum (Willd.) Worosch. is a tetraploid, while the other five species (Argyranthemum frutescens (L.) Sch.-Bip., Opisthopappus taihangensis (Ling) shih, Crossostephium chinense (L.) Makino, Tanacetum vulgare L. and P. parthenium (L.) Sm.) are all diploids. Their karyotypes consist mainly of median centromere...
