Abstract The shifts in adaptive strategies revealed by ecological succession and the mechanisms that facilitate these shifts are fundamental to ecology. These adaptive strategies could be particularly important in communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) mutualistic with sorghum, where strong AMF succession replaces initially ruderal species ...

Summary Most plants form mycorrhizal associations with mutualistic soil fungi. Through these partnerships, resources are exchanged including photosynthetically fixed carbon for fungal‐acquired nutrients. Recently, it was shown that the diversity of associated fungi is greater than previously assumed, extending to Mucoromycotina fungi.

Symbiotic propagation of seedlings of Cyrtopodium glutiniferum Raddi (Orchidaceae)
In nature, orchid seeds obtain the nutrients necessary for germination by degrading intracellular fungal structures formed after colonization of the embryo by mycorrhizal fungi.

Asymbiotic in vitro germination and seed quality assessment of Australian terrestrial orchids [PDF]
Determining the seed quality and germination requirements for threatened orchid species in storage is vital for future conservation efforts. Seeds of many Australian terrestrial orchid species are held in conservation collections around the country, but ...

ASYMBIOTIC GERMINATION OF CYPRIPEDIUM CALCEOLUS VAR. PARVIFLORUM (ORCHIDACEAE) IN VITRO. [PDF]
Seeds from mature seed pods of Cypripedium calceolus var. parviflorum were germinated on 1/4 MSMO (Sigma) + 100ml/l coconut water + 1% sucrose +/- 8g/l agar (pH 6.0), and with or without prechilling at 5C for 8 weeks.

In vitro propagation of temperate Australian terrestrial orchids: revisiting asymbiotic compared with symbiotic germination [PDF]
Using a common temperate herbaceous terrestrial orchid from Australia (Caladenia latifolia) this study investigated 19 asymbiotic media variations comprising four commonly used basal media [half-strength Murashige and Skoog (½MS), Knudson C (KC), Pa5 ...

Seed storage and asymbiotic germination of Hadrolaelia grandis (Orchidaceae)
Abstract Hadrolaelia grandis is an endangered species of orchid that is experiencing population declines due to habitat destruction and collection for ornamental purposes. Seed storage, in vitro germination and development of seedlings for propagation were investigated.

Asymbiotic seed germination and in vitro propagation of Brasiliorchis picta
Seed storage method for in vitro germination and propagation from leaves of Brasiliorchis picta was developed. Seeds were harvested and stored at -20 and -80°C for 1, 3, 6, and 12 months and were germinated on Knudson C (KC), Murashige and Skoog (MS), half-strength MS (½ MS macro- and micro-nutrients), and woody plant medium (WPM).

Asymbiotic Germination of Mature Seeds and the Seed Development of Vanilla Planifolia
Abstract Background: Vanilla planifolia is an important tropical orchid for production of natural vanilla flavor. Traditionally, V. planifolia is propagated by stem cuttings, which produces identical genotype that are sensitive to virulent pathogens. However, sexual propagation with seed germination of V.

Cryopreservation without vitrification suitable for large scale cryopreservation of orchid seeds
Background Orchids are under threat from human activities and climate change, with populations limited to small geographic hotspots. This makes them ideal candidates for ex situ conservation.
