Breeding as a tool for improving postharvest quality characters of lily and tulip flowers.

Segregation of postharvest quality characters was studied in 45 lily and 32 tulip populations. A large variation in vase life longevity of both lily and tulip flowers was found within populations tested at the individual plant level. Other postharvest quality characters such as number of flowers per stem, male sterility (lily) and stem elongation (tulip) also varied within the populations tested. Due to the high correlations between the offspring and their corresponding parental genotypes for several characters, breeding for a considerable improvement of postharvest quality in future cultivars seems promising.
