Over the last two decades, the asymbiotic seed culture approach has been effectively used with many of our native terrestrial orchids. Many researchers Japanese Toenail Fungus Code have added to this growing database of laboratory protocols over the years. Recent work within the genus Cypripedium is but one of many examples. Through precise manipulation of media, recipes and laboratory protocols, many Cypripediums can be reliably germinated in the 80-100% ranges from mature seed protocols. Cypripedium reginae was the first native terrestrial orchid to be placed in the "easy to germinate" category. At the Kitty Todd Preserve, no adult or juvenile plants were removed or damaged in this study. Only seed pods are required to start the asymbiotic seed cultures in the laboratory. Seeds were sown in the laboratory resulting in viable protocorms. Later, at the proper stage of development, these protocorms are ready for individual needle transfer under sterile lab conditions to re-plate containers.
Early stage protocorms transfers are preferable, because the individual corms will quickly knit together forming a dense, unusable matt of rhizoidal root hairs if left in the germination tube. Later, these individual corms develop on a modified agar recipe formulated to induce bud development while simultaneously encouraging roots to form. Many months later, we have viable seedlings. The soil mix used for acclimating the seedlings from test tube to outdoor growing conditions is a sterilized blend. No soil borne mycorrhizae are used. In this way, there is no introduction of non-resident organisms to the Kitty Todd Nature Preserve. The seedlings will naturally be exposed to native, on-site mycorrhizae upon relocation to the preserve. The seedlings and the subsequent adult plants apparently may not require any special soil mycorrhizae to develop into long lived established plants. It should be noted, that the special soil mycorrhizae may only be required for the germination of seeds in the wild.
