“…Such "retarded" bulbs of many cultivars can be stored dry for a year without losing their viability. If the retarded bulbs are exposed to lower temperatures, the development of initiated leaves is accelerated, the respiration rate increases and after about six days another steady-state respiratory level is reached (Rodrigues Pereira 1962, Kamerbeek 1962, Halevy et al 1963, Rees 1972. The optimum temperature of this process lies at 13 to 15°C.…”

The patterns of water content and reserve allocation in the bulb parts of red squill (Urginea maritima (L.) Baker) and the plant's adaptive strategy to Mediterranean climate (Crete, Greece) were investigated. The different bulb parts serve varying ecological functions in terms of their resources and their importance for these functions. The basal plate is the active centre, developing one or two apical meristems and roots in autumn, as well as the flowering bud in late summer. The middle of the bulb (approximately the third bulb scale) stores the resources and the tunics (the outer covering structures) that provide mechanical defense. The water content and reserve allocation patterns synchronize the plant's phenological development with the seasonality of the Mediterranean climate. The adaptive strategies are based on the development of a deciduous semisubterranean life form primarily for the avoidance of drought, herbivores, and other environmental hazards, as well as nutrient shortage. The presence of cells containing lipids, polysaccharides, raphides, water, mucilage, bufadienolides, the presence of sclerenchyma, the tightly packed epidermis, and the presence of the tunics facilitate this.Résumé : Les auteurs ont examiné les patrons de teneur en eau et l'allocation des réserves dans les parties du bulbe du Urginea maritima (L.) Baker, ainsi que les stratégies d'adaptation de la plante au climat méditerranéen (Crête, Grèce). Les différentes parties du bulbe servent différentes fonctions écologiques, en termes de ressource et de leur importance pour ces fonctions. La plaque basale constitue le centre d'activité, développant à l'automne un ou deux méristèmes et des racines, ainsi que le bourgeon floral à la fin de l'été. Le milieu du bulbe (environ la troisième écaille du bulbe) emmagasine les ressources, et les tuniques (structures enveloppantes externes) servent à la défense. La teneur en eau et les patrons d'allocation des réserves synchronisent le développement phénologique de la plante selon le caractère saisonnier du climat méditerranéen. Les stratégies d'adaptation reposent sur le développement d'une forme vitale décidue semi-souterraine, surtout pour éviter la sécheresse, les herbivores et les autres aléas environnementaux, ainsi que l'emmagasinage des nutriments. Ceci est facilité par la présence de cellules contenant des lipides, polysaccharides, raphides, eau, mucilage, bufadienolides, la présence de sclérenchymes, l'épiderme bien serré et la présence de tuniques.

“…The improved detectability at 17°C and 20°C as found in earlier experiments , and as described in this paper (Figs 2 and 4), may therefore be correlated with physiological activities induced by the treatment at 17°C or 20°C. Kamerbeek (1962) measured the respiration of iris bulbs during storage and found an optimum of respiration at 15°C (after six days of incubation in the range of 5°C to 30°C in Iris cv. Van Vliet).…”

Summary The influence of wounding and high‐temperature treatment on the detection of iris severe mosaic virus (ISMV) in secondarily ISMV‐infected iris bulbs was studied. Wounding of the bulbs just after lifting, followed by storage for 3 wk at 17°C or 20°C, increased the detectability of ISMV to 100% reliability. High‐temperature treatment and consecutive storage at 17°C induced a similar improvement of detection. It is concluded that a certain degree of stress, such as wounding or high‐temperature treatment, ultimately leads to an increase in viral antigens and thus to improvement of detection. It is hypothesised that the virus titre increases by the altered metabolism during the repair reactions as a response to stress applied to the bulbs.
