Micropropagation of Cymbidium iridioides

Asymbiotic Culture of Immature Embryos, Mass Multiplication of Cymbidium Iridioides D. Don. and the Role of Different Factors

Immature embryos of Cymbidium iridioides were successfully cultured on five different media with various supplements and maintained in three different light conditions. Within three week of culture, embryos formed nodular structures. Cultures under full light condition formed green protocorm-like bodies while, other light conditions failed to support optimum germination. Immature embryos of 10 ...

Comparative karyomorphological study of some Indian Cymbidium Swartz, 1799 (Cymbidieae, Orchidaceae)

Understanding the genetic resources and diversity is very important for the breeding programs and improvement of several economically important orchids like Cymbidium. Karyomorphological studies have been carried out on seven Cymbidium species, Cymbidium aloifolium (Linnaeus, 1753), Cymbidium devonianum Paxton,1843, Cymbidium elegans Lindley, 1828, Cymbidium iridioides D. Don, 1825, Cymbidium l...

Micropropagation of Anthurium spp

Automatic Micropropagation of Plants

Micropropagation is a sophisticated technique for the rapid multiplication of plants. It has a great commercial potential due to the speed of propagation, the high plant quality, and the ability to produce disease-free plants. However, micropropagation is usually done by hand which makes the process cost-intensive and tedious for the workers especially because it requires a sterile work-place. ...
