Abstract:
Studies were made on the vegetative p ropagation coefficient and cormelps biological characters usingeighth-excision in different development phase of Lycoris rad iate. The results showed: ( 1 ) the p ropagationcoefficientwere from 0. 8 to 6. 8 in different development phase, the highest p ropagation coefficient appeared in June, July in dormancy stage and Sep tember in initial stage of vigorous growth; (2) all of biological characters, such ascormelps fresh weight, size, height, root length, roughness and root quantities, p resented 1% significant difference.These monthswas thought to excise Lycoris rad iate by comp rehensive analysis, for instance June, July in dormancystage, Sep tember in initial stage of vigorous growth, and Ap ril in last stage of growth.
