Breeding of Dendrobium officinale

INQUIRY

Dendrobium officinale, a perennial herb, is an endangered orchid native to South and Southeast Asia. In addition to its ornamental value, it also has unique medicinal value. Lifeasible is dedicated to the field of plant research. We have obtained more new varieties of Dendrobium officinale using advanced breeding methods in Dendrobium officinale breeding research. This has greatly promoted the progress of Dendrobium officinale breeding research.

Breeding of Dendrobium officinale

We provide various solutions for Dendrobium officinale breeding

For many years, we have been devoted to researching Dendrobium officinale germplasm resources and breeding status. We have laid the foundation for Dendrobium officinale breeding work through meticulous research on morphological identification, molecular identification, agronomic trait analysis, and composition analysis of existing Dendrobium officinale germplasm resources.

We have obtained newer Dendrobium officinale varieties through conventional breeding methods such as selective breeding, cross-breeding, mutagenesis breeding, and ploidy breeding. In addition, with the help of modern biotechnology, such as molecular marker-assisted breeding and transgenic breeding, we have been accelerating the research into Dendrobium officinale breeding. We have played a significant role in breeding excellent Dendrobium officinale varieties.

  • Breeding new Dendrobium officinale species with DNA molecular marker-assisted breeding for cold resistance

At present, Dendrobium officinale is introduced to each other, and the seed source is confused. This seriously affects its quality and stability, plus it likes a warm and humid climate and is not cold tolerant. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate the germplasm resources of Dendrobium officinale and breed drought-tolerant varieties to assist in screening. So far, we have used DNA molecular markers, and we have screened and bred several drought-resistant Dendrobium varieties. We collected Dendrobium officinale cultivars and several wild species. We analyzed the genetic diversity of Dendrobium officinale using CDDP, SCoT, TRAP, and other molecular marker techniques. We screened Dendrobium officinale for cold resistance using cold resistance related genes as an aid. Meanwhile, we used molecular marker technology to assist in screening cold-resistant Dendrobium officinale in different molecular markers. We screened several excellent germplasm of Dendrobium officinale with resistance to cold by anchoring primers of resistance-related transcription factors.

  • Cultivation of transgenic Dendrobium officinale

The quality of Dendrobium officinale resources varies, and there is a lack of plants with excellent traits on the market. In addition, problems include serious pests and diseases, difficulty controlling flowering, and lack of flower color and shape. We use transgenic technology not only to up-regulate the expression level of beneficial components of plants but also to enhance their resistance to diseases and pests and to control their growth and development process for market needs. We mainly use Agrobacterium tumefaciens as a medium for gene transformation. This technology has the technical characteristics of a high level of efficiency, simplicity, and effectiveness.
