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...

Herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.) is a famous ornamental plant, and the study of its flower color great significance for cultivating new varieties. To explore factors driving formation change herbaceous color, we selected five varieties at four flowering stages to determine in petal area, microstructure. We also examined composition content pigments, soluble sugar protein content, pH ...
