    Notes: Summary Interspecific crosses were made between 76 Tulipa gesneriana cultivars and 28 botanical Tulipa species. Tulipa gesneriana proved fully congruent (all cross-combinations giving hybrid progeny) with members of the subsection Gesnerianae, was moderately affiliated (50% of all cross-combinations giving hybrid progeny) with representatives of the subsection Eichleres, and was found to be incongruent with most other Tulipa species (except T. stapfii of the subsection Oculussolis). Relationships between T. gesneriana and some representatives of the subsection Eichleres were addressed in more detail. Seeds were harvested in all cross-combinations, but the number of seeds depended on the T. gesneriana cultivar used as the female partner. Apparently, the maternal genotype did affect pre- or post-fertilization processes. T. gesneriana was not crossable with T. kaufmanniana of the subsection Spiranthera. In this specific case, however, a bridge cross was used to overcome incongruity. For this, T. kaufmanniana was first combined with T. greigii, and the hybrid was subsequently crossed with T. gesneriana. These results demonstrate possibilities for interspecific cross-combinations in tulips and have offered opportunities for the introduction of desired new traits in the cultivated tulip.

    Notes: Summary Flower pigment compositions of 43 accessions of Tulipa species, 6 species hybrids and 494 tulip cultivars were analysed with respect to the amount of carotenoids, and the anthocyanidins pelargonidin, cyanidin and delphinidin. After principal component analysis, the different pigment compositions appeared to be correlated with flower color. Hybrids were not intermediate between the parents in all cases. The variation found in T. gesneriana extends that of the whole rest of the genus. The biosynthetic pathway as described in Petunia, Anthirrinum and other genera can also be postulated for the genus Tulipa, but additive effects of multiple genes may be assumed, since several levels of concentration were found. Flavonoid synthesis has biological relevance in view of co-evolution with insect pollinators and male sterility.
