Abstract

To understand the effect of peptone on the formation of shoot apical meristem during early development of orchid embryo, the cytological characterization of orchid embryo developmental phases was conducted. Three- to four-month-old fruits and seeds were sown on Vacin and Went (VW) medium for Dendrobium phalaenopsis and Dendrobium lineale and New Phalaenopsis (NP) medium for Phalaenopsis amabilis. The medium were added with 1 g · L−1 to 3 g · L−1 peptone. Cultures were maintained at 25 °C with continuous white light. Anatomic preparations were done using paraffin methods and observed every week. The result showed that orchid embryo germinated and formed shoot through five phases, namely, phase 0 (early embryo), phase 1 (swollen embryo, enlarged cell size), phase 2 (ovoid-shaped embryo, cell shape becomes ovoid and testa was broken), phase 3 (no testa, formed bipolar apical and basal cells), phase 4 (embryo forms tuber-like shape with absorbing hair in the basal part, termed protocorm) and phase 5 (protocorm formed shoot with dense colour cells in the shoot apical meristem, termed SAM). SAM was initiated at 3 weeks after seed sowing (WAS). The best concentration of additional peptone in the medium to accelerate the development of orchid embryos was 2 g · L−1 for Dendrobium and 3 g · L−1 for Phalaenopsis, which start from very early stages (phase 1 or phase 2).
