Abstract

The Orchidaceae family, the world’s second-largest flowering plant, dominates the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) red list. Threats to orchid survival include illegal harvesting, habitat destruction, temperature change, and unique association requirements in pollination systems and orchid mycorrhiza interaction. Some research breakthroughs in ex-situ and in-situ germplasm integration techniques for conservation application, including automated precision approaches in orchid research. Ex-situ conservation approaches, including gene bank, seed bank, cryopreservation, field gene bank, and in-vitro culture, can play indispensable roles in the success of orchid conservation and preservation, especially for endangered orchids. Recently, multi-omics technology emerged as an important tool to bridge the knowledge gaps in orchid conservation so more effective measurement could take place. These provide a good conservation framework that confluences with technology and knowledge.
