Lilium is one of the most popular flower crops worldwide, and some species are also used as vegetables and medicines. The availability of and easy access to diverse Lilium genetic resources are essential for plant genetic improvements. Cryopreservation is currently considered as an ideal means for the long-term preservation of plant germplasm. Over the last two decades, great efforts have been exerted in studies of Lilium cryopreservation and progress has been made in the successful cryopreservation of pollen, seeds and shoot tips in Lilium. Genes that exist in Lilium, including those that regulate flower shape, color and size, and that are resistant to cold stress and diseases caused by fungi and viruses, provide a rich source of valuable genetic resources for breeding programs to create novel cultivars required by the global floriculture and ornamental markets. Successful cryopreservation of Lilium spp. is a way to preserve these valuable genes. The present study provides updated and comprehensive information about the development of techniques that have advanced Lilium cryopreservation. Further ideas are proposed to better direct future studies on Lilium cryobiotechnology.

“…Preliminary results showed that the taxonomy of the immature stages is helpful in determining relationships among taxa (Howell & Tippins, 1990), especially for groups with highly modified adult females. The adult female of K. betula was described by Wu and Liu (2009) based on material collected from Henan Province, China, on Betula albosinensis Burkill (Betulaceae), and it has reduced antennae and legs. Nan et al (2013) provided its 18S and 28S rDNA sequences.…”

“…Disc-pores mainly with 5 loculi but occasionally with 4 or 7 loculi, each pore 4 μm in diameter, distributed throughout venter except medially. Macrotubular ducts (Wu & Liu (2009) described these ducts as invaginated disc pores) of 2 sizes: large ducts, each about 16 μm long and 7-8 μm wide and with about 14 pores at inner orifice of outer part in a ring around base, distributed in more or less a single longitudinal row along margin; and smaller ducts, each about 9 μm and 4-5 μm wide; with 4 pairs near labium.…”
