Inheritance of Flower Pigment in Crosses between Cyclamen Cultivars and Cyclamen purpurascens
Although interspecific hybrids between cyclamen (Cyclamen persicum) cultivars and C. purpurascens were produced by using the ovule culture, mode of inheritance of flower pigment remains obscure. Therefore, inheritance of anthocyanin in the petals in the crosses between diploid cyclamen cultivars and C. purpurascens was investigated in the present study. In every cross combination, including the...
متن کاملBiological effects of heavy-ion beam irradiation on cyclamen
The biological effects of heavy-ion beam irradiation on cultured tissues of cyclamen were investigated by establishing an irradiation-mediated mutation breeding protocol for producing a new variety of cyclamen. Initially, a callus, a somatic embryo, and a plantlet were irradiated with C ion beam at doses of 10, 20, 40, 60, and 80 Gy. Distinct mutants were not obtained in plants regenerated from...
متن کاملA Review of Research on Flower-Colored Mutants of Fragrant Cyclamens Induced by Ion-Beam Irradiation
Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com main component of flower color is anthocyanin, a type of flavonoid [1]. Numerous genes involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis have been analyzed in various plants, and their biosynthesis pathways determined [2,3]. In addition to anthocyanins, flavonols and organic acids also play a role in flower color as ‘co-pigments’ [4]. Fragrant cyclamen cultivars...

متن کاملDoes pollination induce corolla abscission of cyclamen flowers by promoting ethylene production?
Very low ethylene production rates were measured in nonpollinated Cyclamen persicum Mill flowers, and no change in production was observed during the whole life span of the flower until death. Normal senescence was accompanied by a gradual discoloration and loss of turgor followed by wilting. Pollination induced a dramatic increase in ethylene evolution, culminating in a peak 4 days after polli...
