Abstract

An efficient and reproducible method for large-scale propagation of Phalaenopsis gigantea using leaf sections has been developed. Leaf sections from young plants were cultured on New Dogashima medium NDM supplemented with cytokinins 6-Benzylaminopurine BAP thidiazuron TDZ and kinetin KIN each at 0.01 0.1 0.5 and 1.0 mgL­ alone and in combinations with auxins anaphthaleneacetic acid NAA at 0.01 0.1 0.5 and 1.0 mgL­. The explants developed calli and protocorm-like-bodies PLBs within 8 weeks of culture. Treatment TDl in combination with auxins was found to be best for the induction of callus and PLBs.
