Induction of in vitro flowering in the orchid Dendrobium Sonia 17.

In this study, Dendrobium Sonia 17 plantlets were used to induce in vitro flowering. Infloresce nces were induced and rooting was inhibited in the half-strength Murashige and Skoog medium containing 20μ MN6-benzyladenine (BA). The medium with high P and low N contents was effective to in duce inf...

description In this study, Dendrobium Sonia 17 plantlets were used to induce in vitro flowering. Infloresce nces were induced and rooting was inhibited in the half-strength Murashige and Skoog medium containing 20μ MN6-benzyladenine (BA). The medium with high P and low N contents was effective to in duce inflorescences while the medium with low P and high N contents was only effective to promote forming of shoots. In addition, the induced in vitro inflorescences were able to multiply and maintain without exhibiting a distinctive vegetative phase. Different morphologies of in vitro flowers such as incomplete flower structures, abnormal and unresupinated in vitro flowers were observed.
