In this study, the chemical constituents of bulb from Lilium lancifolium and Lilium tsingtauense were investigated. The content of moisture, crude protein and fiber of bulb from L. tsingtauense was higher than that of L. lancifolium, whereas the content of crude ash and nitrogen free extract of bulb from L. lancifolium was higher than that of L. tsingtauense. HPLC analysis revealed that total free sugar and amino acid content of bulb from L. tsingtauense was higher than that of L. lancifolium. There was no remarkable difference in proximate composition between the two species. The content of p-coumaric acid and ferulic acid was 1.93 mg% and 0.25 mg% in ethyl acetate fraction of L. lancifolium, on the other hand, 2.94 mg% and 0.46 mg% in ether fraction of L. tsingtauense. These results suggest that the bulb of L. tsingtauense can be considered as promising oriental medicine resource likewise L. lancifolium.

Volatile fragrance components in 5 kinds of Korean native Lilium were investigated and compared. The volatile components were extracted by SDE (simultaneous steam distillation and extraction) and identified by CC and GC-MS. As a result of the analysis of volatile aromatic ingredient of L. leichtlinii var. tigrinum Nickels., L. concolor var. parthneion Bak., L. tsingtauense Gilg., L. hansonii Leichtl., and L. amabile Palibin., using frozen materials, 60 kinds of volatile compound were identified, which were 28 aldehydes, 9 ketones, 8 alcohols, 5 esters, 5 acids, 3 furans and 2 others. The GC patterns of the aroma components of all samples resembled but the peak areas were different according to species, though all of them are Korean native Liliums.

The genus Lilium comprises about 100 species and is a major element of the family Liliaceae in temperate region of North Hemisphere. In the light of recent studies on the genus, we tried to examine the taxonomy of three Korean species (L. hansonii, L. tsingtauense, and L. distichum) belonging to section Martagon. The four available chloroplast regions (rbcL, matK, ndhF, and atpB) in Lilium species were selected and analyzed for a maximum likelihood phylogeny. As a results, three Korean species of section Martagon formed a monophyletic group. However, they nested within paraphyletic section Sinomartagon. Further, the discussions on taxonomic affinities of Korean species have made based on comparison between topology of phylogenetic tree and morphology.
