Morphological characterization in Mokara Orchids
Abstract
Morphological characterization is the basic tool for improvement programme of orchids which is required for conducting Distinctiveness, Uniformity and Stability (DUS) testing to provide and promote an effective system of plant variety protection. It provides rights for breeders and farmers to exploit or develop new plant varieties, to allow access to foreign varieties with widen gene pool, to promote intensive breeding activities and to prevent unauthorized varieties exploitations. In the present study, 8 hybrids of Mokara orchids were evaluated during 2017-18 for development of common descriptors. Usually, healthy and insect pest and disease free plants are selected for taking morphological observations without any che... Read More read more link button
