“…Prized mainly for its large, showy, and colorful flowers, many breeders have successfully produced hybrids that are coming in and out of the plant market. In the Philippines, the Institute of Plant Breeding (IPB) at the University of the Philippines Los Baños has collectively released more than 40 hybrids since 1995 (Magdalita and Pimentel 2013;Magdalita and San Pascual 2021). But this is only a small part of the more than 24,000 cultivars listed in the database of the International Hibiscus Society (2023), many not officially named.…”

Leaf architecture has been successfully used in the taxonomic and systematic studies of many plant families, genera, and species but little employed at the variety level. The present study demonstrated how leaf architecture can be equally important for plant varieties as well. The leaf architecture of four Hibiscus rosa-sinensis L. varieties namely ‘Reddy or Not’, ‘Nay Isa’, ‘Lolay’, and ‘Saskia De Lang’ from the Institute of Plant Breeding was studied. A total of 150 leaf specimens were digitized, examined, measured, and described. The semicraspedodromous pattern of the secondary veins and the angle between the 3° to 1° vein were characters found to have taxonomic significance in describing H. rosa-sinensis species while the angle of the 2° vein was important for delineating H. rosa-sinensis varieties. The resulting dendrogram from the cluster analysis grouped all the H. rosa-sinensis from the outgroup and further created three subclusters that were closely related.

“…Hibiscus syriacus L., a member of the Malvaceae family, is commonly known as Sharon rose. It is an ornamental flowering plant, and more than 350 varieties are being grown worldwide ( Magdalita and San Pascual, 2020 ). Its flowers are used in salads and are known to possess biological functions against a wide range of human diseases ( Kim et al, 2022 ).…”

Hibiscus syriacus L. var. Shigyoku is a new double-flowered bluish-purple variety in China that changes color during flower development from bluish-purple to light purple. There is limited information on the anthocyanin accumulation patterns and associated transcriptome signatures in Shigyoku from D1 (bud) to open flower (D3). Here, we employed a combined transcriptome and metabolome approach to understanding the mechanism of this color change. Our results demonstrate that cyanidins, pelargonidins, delphinidins, petunidins, peonidins, and malvidins were differentially accumulated in Shigyoku petals. The anthocyanin biosynthesis started in D1, was significantly upregulated in D2 (semi-open flower), and reduced in D3. However, malvidins, pelargonidins, and peonidins could be associated with the bluish-purple coloration on D2. Their reduced accumulation in D3 imparted the light purple coloration to Shigyoku petals on D3. Significant contributions in the color change could be associated with the expression changes in anthocyanin biosynthesis genes i.e., LARs, ANSs, DFRs, UGT79B1, C3’Hs, 3ATs, and BZ1s. The UFGTs were associated with the higher accumulation of glycosylated anthocyanins in D2 and D3. Furthermore, the changes in the expressions of the MYB and bHLH transcription factors were consistent with the anthocyanin accumulation. Finally, we discussed the possible roles of Jasmonic acid, auxin, and gibberellic acid signaling in regulating the MBW complex. Taken together, we conclude that H. syriacus petal coloration is associated with anthocyanin biosynthesis genes, the MBW complex, and phytohormone signaling.
