Author(s) : PRITCHARD H. W.
Type of article: Article
Summary
QUANTITATIVE GERMINATION TESTING INVOLVING LONG-TERM AXENIC CULTURING IS USED TO DEMONSTRATE THAT NO DETRIMENTAL EFFECT ON EMBRYO GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT IN TERRESTRIAL AND EPIPHYTIC ORCHID SEED OCCURS AS A RESULT OF EXPOSURE TO LIQUID NITROGEN TEMPERATURES. IN ONE TERRESTRIAL SPECIES, ORCHIS MORIO, LIQUID NITROGEN TREATMENT PROMOTES EMBRYO EMERGENCE WITH A MAXIMUM 20% INCREASE AFTER FOUR FREEZE/THAW CYCLES.
