Utilization of disease-resistant cultivars is considered as the most cost-effective and environmentally sound approach to managing plant diseases including diseases of florists' crops. Improving disease resistance has been a main objective in a number of florists' crop breeding programs. The commonly used breeding approach has been classic hybridization followed by progeny screening for resistance to targeted diseases. Breeding efforts over the last several decades have resulted in the development and release of numerous cultivars with resistance to major diseases in anthurium, caladium, carnation, chrysanthemum, gerbera, gladiolus, hydrangea, lily, narcissus, rose, tulip, and other florists'

“…Resistance screening. Reliable screening for TBV resistance has been performed at the clonal and seedling level by aphid or mechanical inoculation (Romanow et al 1986(Romanow et al , 1991. Aphid inoculation was achieved by placing viruliferous aphids on the leaves of tulip plants at flowering for 1 day.…”

“…Certain chemicals are restricted, therefore, chemical-free methods, such as resistant varieties, are needed to control the incidence of virus-infected tulips. Although some tulip varieties exist that are less susceptible to infection (Romanow et al 1990), viral infections are still an important problem for tulip bulb growers.…”

The tulip breaking virus (TBV) causes severe economic losses for countries that export tulips such as the Netherlands. Infected plants have to be removed from the field as soon as possible. There is an urgent need for a rapid and objective method of screening. In this study, four proximal optical sensing techniques for the detection of TBV in tulip plants were evaluated and compared with a visual assessment by crop experts as well as with an ELISA (enzyme immunoassay) analysis of the same plants. The optical sensor techniques used were an RGB color camera, a spectrophotometer measuring from 350 to 2500 nm, a spectral imaging camera covering a spectral range from 400 to 900 nm and a chlorophyll fluorescence imaging system that measures the photosynthetic activity. Linear discriminant classification was used to compare the results of these optical techniques and the visual assessment with the ELISA score. The spectral imaging system was the best optical technique and its error was only slightly larger than the visual assessment error. The experimental results appear to be promising, and they have led to further research to develop an autonomous robot for the detection and removal of diseased tulip plants in the open field. The application of this robot system will reduce the amount of insecticides and the considerable pressure on labor for selecting diseased plants by the crop expert.

“…They comprise a large diversity of types and colours, but the available genetic variation in the commercial assortment now appears to become a limiting factor, since resistances against fungi, viruses and nematodes are scarcely available. Techniques for the transfer of genes encoding disease resistances from Tulipa species that do not hybridize with T gesneriana are becoming of increasing importance ( Van Eijk & Eikelboom, 1990 ;Romanow et al, 1991 ;Eikelboom et al ., 1992 ; Le Nard & De Hertogh, 1993a) . Novel variation generated by the introduction of resistances would also help to broaden the genetic base for bulb yield, forcing ability, vase life, and flower colour and shape ( Van Eijk & Varekamp, 1979 ; Van Eijk et al ., 1985 ;Nieuwhof et al ., 1990) .…”

Embryo-rescue was studied as a means to overcome post-fertilization barriers in interspecific crosses in the genus Tulipa . With compatible T gesneriana L. cultivar crosses, ovule culture was found to be superior to isolated embryo culture. Complete plantlet formation was possible from an embryo size of about 0 .5 mm onwards .In the interspecific cross T gesneriana x T kaufmanniana, which is hampered by embryo breakdown, successful rescue of abortive embryos was demonstrated . Optimal embryo-rescue was achieved in cultures started seven to nine weeks after pollination . With cultures initiated at a later time, the rate of success decreased . A low number of germinative seeds were obtained after normal ripening of the seed pods, but by using ovule culture the efficiency of seedling formation could be increased dramatically .The ovule culture procedure will allow novel crosses and will offer new possibilities for the introduction of desirable genes into tulip cultivars .
