Orchidaceae Plant Tissue Culture
Orchidaceae is the second largest family of angiosperms after Asteraceae, and the floral organs are peculiarly food-derived and deceitful in pollination, with pseudobulbs, and the whole plant is used as medicine, and the biological habit characteristics are remarkable.
Orchidaceae plants are diverse and have high ornamental value, and individual genera also have high medicinal value, for example, many species of Dendrobium are valuable herbal medicines and are precious dual-use plants. However, due to its harsh growing conditions, its seed development mechanism, and predatory harvesting by people, many genera of Orchidaceae plants are on the verge of extinction and are classified as protected plants.
Reasons for the endangerment of Orchidaceae plants
- Orchidaceae plant populations are relatively small
- There are limitations to the propagation and spread of the species
- Destruction by human harvesting
With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, biodiversity conservation, and the protection of endangered species, the propagation and cultivation of Orchidaceae plants have also attracted attention. From the perspective of biological evolution, most of the orchid species are in the active stage of evolution and specialization, and the conservation of orchids means, to some extent, the conservation of biodiversity on earth, so the use of artificial technology to cultivate Orchidaceae plants becomes an inevitable path.
Plant tissue culture technology is one of the more maturely developed modern biotechnology and one of the important basic research tools. Lifeasible, as a leading plant technology company, we have rich experience in the plant tissue culture of Orchidaceae plants. Orchidaceae have a long growth cycle and are slow to propagate in the natural environment. Using the tissue culture technology, we offer allows for rapid propagation of Orchidaceae to meet the needs of the market.
Here will be some differences in the test results depending on the species of Orchidaceae and the selection of explants. In addition, the secondary metabolites produced during the tissue culture of Orchidaceae have medicinal value, and the study of secondary metabolites is also an important direction for our tissue culture. Aseptic germination of seeds is also of great importance as the only way to breed hybrids, and our platform provides technical support for the selection of excellent traits in Orchidaceae.
