Sprouting of Yam Bulbils as Affected by Chemical Treatment
Davao Research Journal, 1999 The sprouting of yam (Dioscorea alata cv. Baligun-on) bulbils treated with ethephon (up to 10,000 ppm) and calcium carbide (up to 100,000 ppm) was neither hastened nor delayed. In contrast, gibberellic acid (GA3) from 75 to 300 ppm progressively delayed sprouting and reduced weight losses.

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.Salt stress (SS) poses a significant threat to cut flower geophytes. This study evaluated the impact of SS on vegetative growth and photosynthetic activities in tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.) and assessed the efficacy of 300 ppm salicylic acid (SA) alone or in combination with 100 ppm indole acetic acid (IAA), 300 ppm ascorbic acid (AA), and 300 ppm

Friends or foes? Polyploidy and competition in a grassland geophyte
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.Previous studies have suggested polyploids may possess a competitive advantage over diploids, due to their larger size, increased vigour or ability to better respond to abiotic stress. However, few studies have tested the effect of polyploidy on competitive ability directly, and only relatively recently has this oversight begun to be addressed. Here we

New norclerodane diterpenoids from bulbils of Dioscorea bulbifera L.
Natural Product Research, 2023 Investigation of extracts from bulbils of Dioscorea bulbifera L. yielded two new norclerodane diterpenoids, diosbulbin N acetate (1) and epi-diosbulbin B (3), together with eleven known compounds. Their structures were established based on spectroscopy.

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.Upon prolonged waterlogging, a Costus speciosus plant developed bulbils at stem node. Karyotype analysis, nucleolar staining, and anatomical study revealed its triploid status and developmental aspects. Prevalence of tetraploid, abundance, and unique reproductive fecundity of the triploid, indicates its determinant role in coexistence of the multiple ...
