Chinese narcissus (Narcissus tazetta var. chinensis Roem), its flowers developed at high temperatures and bloomed at lower temperatures during the Chinese Spring Festival, is a traditional Chinese flower with high economic and ornamental value. To study its flower development, a full length cDNA containing MADS box domain from narcissus was isolated by a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) with degenerate oligo-nucleotide primers derived from a conserved MADS- and K-box domain sequence. The 5' and the 3' regions of the gene were amplified using the PCR protocol for the rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The 690 bp open reading frame encodes 230 amino acid residues. A comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence of NTAG with the sequence of other MADS box proteins showed 91.3% amino acid identities with HAG (Hyacinthus orientalis). Sequence analysis and alignment showed significant similarity with other AG homologues. RNA blot analysis indicated that the narcissus NTAG gene was expressed only in reproductive organs, especially in stamens and carpels. These results indicated that the NTAG gene was an AG homologue and that the AG genes appeared to be structurally and functionally conserved between dicots and monocots.展开更多

In this experiment, “Manly”, “Dutch” and “Wilden” daffodils were used as test materials. NaCl stress was applied at different concentrations, and the corresponding physiological indexes were measured at three time nodes: bolting stage, early flowering stage and blooming stage. The results showed that all three showed some resistance under low concentration salt stress, in which, SOD, POD enzyme activity, chlorophyll proline and soluble sugar content increased, while MDA content decreased. The physiological metabolism of the three was disturbed under high concentration of salt stress, in which, SOD, POD enzyme activity and chlorophyll content decreased, while MDA, proline and soluble sugar content increased. With the extension of stress time, the injury was gradually deepened and the salt tolerance of the three varieties is “Dutch”, “Wilden” and “Manly” in order.展开更多

PP333,Het,CCC and B9 with different concentrations on growth and flowering of narcissus.The results indicated that the narcissus treated with certain concentration inhibitors could grow shorter plants with shorter scapes of flower and smaller leaves than the check, and the compact,straight and coordinate plants improve the decorative value obviously.展开更多

The results showed that the regulators could inhibit the growths of height and leaves of narcissi. Of the four regulators, the dwarfing effects of paclobatrazol (PP333) and uniconazole (S3307) on narcissi were better than those of chlorocholine (CCC) and dimethyl amino-sussinamic acid (B9). All of the regulators did not have significant effect on the root length. Moreover, the time of flowering was later for the narcissi treated with regulators than that of the control to a certain extent, and the range delayed was from 2 days to 19 days. The correlation analysis results showed that there was a significant correlation between the time of flowering and the concentrations of regulators. The ornament value of narcissi was obviously improved by using the regulators.展开更多
