The family Pteridaceae belongs to the terrestrial, large, or medium-sized ferns, under which there are more than 300 species of plants in 10 genera. It is mainly distributed in the tropics and subtropics, especially in tropical America.
Plants of the Pteridaceae family have high ornamental and medicinal values. On the one hand, most of the plants in this family are ideal foliage plants, which can be planted in pots or used to configure rock bonsai and rockery, and the leaves of some plants can also be used as foliage material for flower arrangements. On the other hand, there are nearly 100 species of plants in this family that can be used as medicine, most of which have the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, reducing swelling, and dysentery. Modern research even shows that some of the crude extracts of the family have anti-tumor, antibacterial, and other pharmacological activities.
With the development and medicinal use of Pteridaceae plants, there is an increasing demand for them. However, in the traditional propagation method, Pteridaceae plants mainly rely on spore propagation and division propagation, while spore propagation has a low seeding rate in the natural environment and division propagation takes a long time and yields a small number of effective seedlings, which cannot meet the demand for a large number of seedlings in a short period.
Therefore, Lifeasible uses tissue culture technology to effectively improve the propagation rate and quality of Pteridaceae plants in a short period, which is very important for the effective exploitation and rational use of Pteridaceae plant resources and is the best way to obtain high-quality seedlings in research.

To better exploit Pteridaceae plants, Lifeasible selected mature spores as explants, which were cultured to achieve a 100% rooting rate and more than 95% survival rate of seedlings rooted and grown.
