Abstract: The establishment of Lycoris regeneration and genetic transformation system is significant to solve the breeding problems. Some research institutions have studied on it for long. However, none mature and effective plant regeneration or transformation system was established. This paper summarizes the progresses on tissue culture of Lycoris, including the types and treatments of explants of L. aurea, L. radiate, L. albiflora, and L. squamigera, et al, and the optimal combination of medium as well as culture condition. Moreover, this article also briefs the transgenic status of other flower bulbs, which can be referenced in the future study of Lycoris.

Key words: Lycoris, Tissue culture, Transformation system
