Lilium leichtlinii subsp. maximowiczii (Regel) J.Compton (Liliaceae): a new combination for Maximowicz's orange lily

Morphological Variations between Korean and Southwestern Japanese Lilium leichtlinii Hook. f

This study aimed to examine detailed morphological variations within Lilium leichtlinii Hook. f. For investigation, two groups, Korean L. leichtlinii (KR group) and southwestern Japanese broad-leaved L. leichtlinii (JSW group), were compared. In total, 52 morphological characteristics (45 quantitative and 7 qualitative traits) were examined in 59 lily accessions (30 KR and 29 JSW). Forty quantitative traits showed significant heterogeneity (p < 0.05) between JSW and KR accessions, and all seven color-related qualitative traits also exhibited differences. Student’s t-tests and principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that major quantitative morphological differences between the two groups included plant height, internode length, upper leaf size, and number of new bulbs. Cluster analysis of 36 morphological traits showed that the KR and JSW accessions belonged to two distinct groups. All together, these results indicate that KR and JSW groups are distal within L. leichtlinii, suggesting that the two groups could be considered different varieties.

Analysis of Research Status and Development Trend of Nanotoxicology of Liliaceae Medicinal Plants

The research status and development trend of nanotoxicology of Liliaceae medicinal plants were analyzed. In the research, the toxicology of Liliaceae medicinal plants was investigated by the preparation method of silver nanoparticles. By means of spectral curve experiment, the present situation of nanotoxicology of Liliaceae medicinal plants was analyzed, and then its subsequent development trend was analyzed. In this process, Liliaceae medicinal plants could be used effectively, which could create great economic benefits. In the application of the above scheme, the toxicological degradation of Liliaceae medicinal plants could be controlled at about 96%. The high-dose silver nanoparticles could reach 100 μM, and the silver nitrate could reach 10 or 30 μM.
