Identifying useful taxonomic indicators for classifying Hibiscus syriacus L. (Malvaceae) cultivars can help address challenges in their homonymy and synonymy. Moreover, analyzing which pollen traits possibly lead to successful fruiting serve guide the hybridization breeding of H. syriacus. For first time, this study classified 24 based on morphological palynological assessed flowers, leaves, gr...

Hibiscus syriacus is a highly ornamental flowering shrub widely grown in East Asia. Its abundant flower colors mainly reflect the accumulation of anthocyanins. Classifying H. petals and identifying relationship between color anthocyanins can provide references for breeding. With eight cultivars as experimental materials, floral was described using Royal Horticultural Society Color Chart CIEL*a*...
