, a new species of Orchidaceae from Yunnan Province, China, is described and illustrated. It is morphologically similar to , but can be easily distinguished from the latter by having a rhombic epichile, long column (6.0-7.5 mm long), and a needle-shaped appendage (1.8-3.2 mm in length) at the base of the stigma. Identification key and colour photographs are provided. A preliminary risk-of-extinction assessment, according to the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria, is given for the new species. The plastome of is 30464 bp in length with GC content approximately 24.8%, and the plastome does not contain some housekeeping genes, such as K, , or all photosynthesis genes. In addition, the plastome lacks an IR region. This indicates that the plastome is in the last stage of degradation.

The genus Armillaria (Basidiomycota, Agaricales, Physalacriaceae) comprises pathogenic fungi that cause root-rot disease in plants, as well as species with low pathogenicity, some of which are hosts of the fully mycoheterotrophic orchid plant Gastrodia elata (Orchidaceae). To investigate the mechanisms underlying such special interactions between Armillaria fungi and G. elata, it is crucial to establish genetic transformation platforms for the Armillaria fungi and G.

Despite being recognized as a specialty food in four Chinese provinces with established safety standards, Kimura et Migo (Orchidaceae) leaf physicochemical indices overlook vital flavonoid glycoside components. Given the inconsistency in flavonoid quality under current standards, we devised a quantitative analysis targeting vicenin 2, vicenin 3, rutin, and isoviolanthin. Our analysis revealed significant seasonal variations, with harvests yielding the highest total content of these four flavonoid glycosides in February (1.

Three novel, highly oxygenated polyketides, multioketides A-C (1-3), and three previously described multioxidized aromatic polyketides (4-6), were isolated from an endophytic Penicillium sp. YUD17006 associated with Gastrodia elata. Their chemical structures were elucidated using extensive spectroscopic data, electronic circular dichroism calculations, and single X-ray diffraction analysis.

Based on structural elucidation of natural and hydrolyzed glycans, the general glycans profiling of D. officinale were unequivocally established for the first time as follows: The results indicated that the structure of D. officinale glycans with low degree of polymerization (DP ≤ 22) was linear α-D-1,4-glucan, whereas the structure of glycans with high degree of polymerization (DP > 24) was linear acetylated 1,4-glucomannan.
