NEW SPECIES OF PHALAENOPSIS, ITS BREEDING AND PROLIFERATION

摘要

PURPOSE: To obtain a new species of Phalaenopsis having snow-white sepal, leaving little gap between the petals, exhibiting vigorous and healthy growth of the plant body and very long flowering period, enabling mass production by tissue culture, having highly uniform constitution of the product and suitable for the planned commercial cultivation. ;CONSTITUTION: This new species of Phalaenopsis (a kind of Orchis graminofolia) has snow-white sepal and scarcely leaves a gap between the petals. The breeding of the new species is preferably carried out by collecting pollens from the anther of the 1st flower after the blooming of Hawaiian-Mystic and applying the pollens to the stigma of a flowering Irene-Sarmientox Leinita to effect the crossing. The proliferation of the Phalaenopsis is preferably performed by culturing the leaf of a young seedling of Phalaenopsis.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1995,JPO
