Effect of Different Basal Media and Organic Supplements on In Vitro Seedling Development of the Endangered Orchid Species (L.) Swartz.

The orchid faces endangerment due to habitat loss and illegal harvesting, necessitating the development of an optimized artificial propagation system to aid conservation and reintroduction efforts. This study evaluated the effects of three plant growth media, namely Murashige and Skoog (MS), Hyponex, and Orchid Maintenance Medium (OMM) (P668), and various organic additives (apple homogenate, banana homogenate, and coconut water) on the in vitro seedling growth of . The results reveal that, in early postgermination stages, seedlings achieve maximum growth in the Hyponex medium, with a fresh weight (92 mg) and root length (2.

UAV telephotography elucidates floristic variability and beta diversity of island cliffs under grazing interventions.

Cliffs contain one of the least known plant communities, which has been overlooked in biodiversity assessments due to the inherent inaccessibility. Our study adopted the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with the telephoto camera to remotely clarify floristic variability across unreachable cliffs. Studied cliffs comprised 17 coastal and 13 inland cliffs in Gageodo of South Korea, among which 9 and 5 cliffs were grazed by the introduced cliff-dwelling goats.

Asymbiotic Seed Germination and In Vitro Seedling Development of the Endangered Orchid Species .

is a highly restricted terrestrial orchid that faces increasing endangerment owing to its habitat destruction and illegal collection. Compared to epiphytic orchids, terrestrial orchids such as have harder seed coats and more demanding in vitro germination conditions. This study aimed to develop an effective in vitro propagation system for to aid in its conservation.

Endangered plant species under differing anthropogenic interventions: how to preserve in Wondong wetland?

Endangered wetland plants are important as the potential keystone species and mediators for plant-soil interactions. Establishing conservation strategies for endangered plants is also prioritized because of the elevating extinction risk by human-induced wetland disturbances. The present study examined the factors controlling the incidence of , the endangered wetland plant experiencing severe habitat loss throughout Northeast Asia.

Effects of Light Condition on Growth and Physiological Characteristics of the Endangered Species under RCP 6.0 Climate Change Scenarios.

This study was conducted to evaluate the physiological and growth responses of cultured in chambers under RCP 6.0 and different light conditions. was grown in a soil-plant daylight system chamber under two treatments, a control (CO = 400 ppm) and a climate change treatment (CCT) (CO = 650 ppm, temperature = control + 3 °C), and three different shading treatments (60%, 90%, and no-shading).

Effects of Different Growth Media on In Vitro Seedling Development of an Endangered Orchid Species .

is becoming endangered, and even extinct, due to habitat destruction and illegal collection, and the development of an optimized artificial propagation system is necessary for its conservation and reintroduction. Thus, the effects of plant growth medium strength (Murashige and Skoog (MS) and Hyponex media) and the addition of activated charcoal (AC) and organic supplements on seedling growth of were investigated through in vitro seed culture. The results showed that seedling growth was higher in half-strength (1/2) media than in full-strength media.
