Abstract
This study successfully established an efficient in vitro propagation system for Paphiopedilum SCBG Huihuang90 via protocorm-like body (PLB) formation from seed-derived calluses, PLB proliferation and differentiation, root induction and greenhouse acclimatization. Furthermore, 1/2 Murashige and Skoog (MS) + 0.025 mg/L 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) was suitable for the proliferation of PLBs, and 1/2MS + 10% coconut water (CW, v/v) + 0.5 g/L activated carbon (AC) was suitable for PLB differentiation. PLBs at different developmental stages required different kinds of sugars. This study provided a reference for research on the propagation techniques of other Paphiopedilum.
