Does soaking time during disinfestation affect germination rates in Dendrobium?
Bioscience Journal, 2020 Asymbiotic germination is considered an efficient and viable technique that can increase germination rates. The effect of type and concentration of disinfestants, and the exposure time to disinfestants may differ according to the plant species ...

A Review on Asymbiotic Seed Germination in Orchids through Plant Tissue Culture
Journal of Scientific Enquiry, 2021 Orchid seeds are very small, dust like in appearance, fusiform in shape, lacking endosperm and have undifferentiated embryo covered by transparent seed coat. Mycorrhizal association is required for seed germination of naturally growing orchids. In this symbiotic association, orchid species are dependent on mycorrhizal association for supply of mineral ...

New Phytologist, Volume 246, Issue 3, Page 1256-1275, May 2025.Summary Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) improves mineral nutrient supply, stress tolerance, and growth of host plants through re‐programing of plant physiology. We investigated the effect of AM on the root secondary metabolome of the model legume Lotus japonicus using untargeted metabolomics. Acetonitrile extracts of AM and control roots were analysed using

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 595-608, December 2024.ABSTRACT Corybas carsei is one of New Zealand's most endangered orchids, with a single remaining population in the Whangamarino Wetland (North Island). Although orchid mycorrhizae have proved a critical aspect of orchid conservation globally, until now mycorrhizal fungi of C. carsei have not been identified or utilised for conservation.

Acta Agronómica, 2017 Cattleya trianae (Linden & Reichb.f., 1860), Colombian national flower, is in danger of extinction due to the destruction of its natural habitats and excessive collection for horticultural purposes. Therefore, in vitro culture is a tool for the conservation of threatened species.

New Phytologist, Volume 243, Issue 1, Page 398-406, July 2024.Summary The minute ‘dust seeds’ of some terrestrial orchids preferentially germinate and develop as mycoheterotrophic protocorms near conspecific adult plants. Here we test the hypothesis that mycorrhizal mycelial connections provide a direct pathway for transfer of recent photosynthate from conspecific green orchids to achlorophyllous protocorms ...
