چکیده
Paphiopedilum armeniacum is level-one protected species. As the original habitat destruction, Paphiopedilum armeniacum is at the brink of extinction now. In order to monitor the environment of the endangered plants such as Paphiopedilum armeniacum, to master the real-time changes of their environment factors such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, the design is based on AT89C51, regarded temperature, humidity and light intensity as the monitoring parameters, choosing temperature sensor DS18B20, humidity sensor HS1101, light-frequency converter TSL235 for data collection. The collection values of the environmental factors are displayed on light emitting diode, and the data transmission is fulfilled by using the PTR2000 short-range wireless transmission module. The micro control unit can accomplish joint factors monitoring such as temperature, humidity and light intensity. Now monitoring the environmental factors of Paphiopedilum armeniacum is a powerful move of protecting endangered plants, protecting the environment.

Slow photosynthetic induction and low photosynthesis in Paphiopedilum armeniacum are related to its lack of guard cell chloroplast and peculiar stomatal anatomy.
Paphiopedilum and Cypripedium are close relatives in the subfamily Cypripedioideae. Cypripedium leaves contain guard cell chloroplasts, whereas Paphiopedilum do not. It is unclear whether the lack of guard cell chloroplasts affects photosynthetic induction, which is important for understory plants to utilize sunflecks. To understand the role of guard cell chloroplasts in photosynthetic inductio...
متن کاملEmbryo development in association with asymbiotic seed germination in vitro of Paphiopedilum armeniacum S. C. Chen et F. Y. Liu
This paper documents the key anatomical features during the development of P. armeniacum zygotic embryos and their ability to germinate asymbiotically in vitro. This study also examines the effect of media and seed pretreatments on seed germination and subsequent seedling growth. Seeds collected from pods 45 days after pollination (DAP) did not germinate while 95 DAP seeds displayed the highest...
متن کاملThe location and translocation of ndh genes of chloroplast origin in the Orchidaceae family
The NAD(P)H dehydrogenase complex is encoded by 11 ndh genes in plant chloroplast (cp) genomes. However, ndh genes are truncated or deleted in some autotrophic Epidendroideae orchid cp genomes. To determine the evolutionary timing of the gene deletions and the genomic locations of the various ndh genes in orchids, the cp genomes of Vanilla planifolia, Paphiopedilum armeniacum, Paphiopedilum niv...
متن کاملA preliminary study on conservation genetics of an endangered orchid (Paphiopedilum micranthum) from southwestern China.
Knowledge about genetic diversity and population genetic structure is a good baseline for formulating effective conservation plans, and can often provide novel, conservation-relevant insights (Avise, 1996; Geburek, 1997; Hamrick and Godt, 1996). An effective conservation strategy for a species can be made only after detailed population genetic information becomes available (Hamrick and Godt, 19...
متن کاملThe structural adaptations of Convolvulus persicus, an endangered plant in the northern coasts of Iran
The purpose of this research was to identify the structural adaptations in three populations of Convolvulus persicus L. on coastal areas in Mazandaran Province, whose populations of which are severely reducing due to the intense environmental stresses of the coastal zone. In general, annular collenchyma, isobilateral mesophyll, amphiphloic siphonostele, abundant presence of laticiferous tubes, ...
