Study on Morphological Diversity of Wild Lily from Qinba Mountain and Its Adjacent Area

In this paper, the morphological characters about seven wild lilies were studied. These wild lilies were all collected from Qinba Mountain and its adjacent area. The results showed that different wild lilies have morphological diversity in bulb, stem, blade and flower organs etc. There were also morphological diversity of different ecotypes in Lilium brownii and L.leucanthum. Two ecotypes of yellow flower in L.leucanthum were found for the first time. The rich (biological) diversity of wild lilies will be an important basis for the lilies selection and breeding.
