Stein is native orchid to Southern Thailand which has been considered as an endangered species. The over collection decreased its wild population, so conservation of its genetic material is needed. The cryopreservation is efficient long term storage method. The objective of this study focused on the investigation of sucrose concentration at the preculture step and V cryo-plate protocol development to cryopreserved protocorm of P. niveum. In order to investigate the optimal sucrose concentration in the preculture medium , two-month-old protocorms were precultured in modified Vacin and Went medium (MVW) containing 0.058, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 M sucrose for 24 h. The viability determination was tested by TTC assay and anatomical observation. The result presented that precultured protocorms in 0.2 M sucrose provided the highest survival at 96% without anatomical damage which was placed as the 1st preculture step. The highest survival percentage (60%) of non-cryopreserved protocorm was obtained from procedure followed by the 1st preculture in MVW containing 0.2 M sucrose (1 day) and 0.6 M sucrose (1 day), followed by osmoprotection using loading solution (LS) containing 1.2 M sucrose (30 min). Protocorms were dehydrated by PVS2 incubation for 60 min. However, there was no survival of cryopreserved protocorm after preserved in liquid nitrogen.

Shakuntala Manay Here is Nagesh’s story, the first recipient of TOSKAR Rolling Shield for the Best Orchid. His interest in growing plants started as a child of eight when he would pick up sprouting onions from Mom’s kitchen onion and plant them in the yard and watched them grow into green leeks. This got him into the hobby to grow vegetables. By this time he was 14. Later he turned to growing foliage plants like succulents, Anthuriums and Cacti. Thus he dared to enter into annual shows at Lalbagh and won many prizes. In “small homes garden” categories he won eight awards from Urban Art Commission such as “Best Maintained Building & Garden” “Pride of Bangalore” “Role of Honour” etc. Ex- commissioners of Bangalore City Corporation Late N. Laxman Rao and Late Mr. Parthsarathy would visit his house as Judges. He received these prestigious prizes amidst distinguished guests and dignitaries at Rajbhavan. Trophies gathered so fast that there was no place for them at home. Twenty years ago he got one orchid from Indo American Nursery. Thus he began collecting orchids from Kerala, North East India and Western Ghats. Now on his terrace of 800 sq ft he has 1500 orchids! Among these Dracula Orchid (Monkey face) which grows in cloud mountains of Mexico, Central America and Colombia is one of his special collections, and more than 15 varieties of Carnivorous Plants and many Tillandsias also add to his collection.

Araya Chochai London, November 2013 2 Abstract Slipper orchids (subfamily Cypripedioideae) comprise five genera; Paphiopedilum, Cypripedium, Phragmipedium, Selenipedium, and Mexipedium. Phylogenetic relationships of the genus Paphiopedilum, were studied using nuclear ribosomal ITS and plastid sequence data. The results confirm that Paphiopedilum is monophyletic and support the division of the genus into three subgenera Parvisepalum, Brachypetalum and Paphiopedilum. Four sections of subgenus Paphiopedilum (Pardalopetalum, Cochlopetalum, Paphiopedilum and Barbata) are recovered with strong support for monophyly, concurring with a recent infrageneric treatment. Section Coryopedilum is also recovered with low bootstrap but high posterior probability values.

Four species of Paphiopedilum were sampled and barcoded. The DNA barcodes reliabilities were evaluated using NCBI BLASTn program, phylogenetic tree via Neighbour-Joining method with 1000 bootstrap replicates in MEGA 6 and barcoding gap assessment. matK is the most promising barcode with high sequence quality (100%), high accuracy in BLASTn (100%), clear resolution of species in Neighbour-Joining phylogenetic tree (100%) and a distinct barcoding gap followed by ITS, trnH-psbA and rbcL. The com- bination of barcode regions revealed the lack of variation in rbcL and trnH-psbA but they are still useful for preliminary identification followed up by matK for accurate identification. Key Words: DNA barcodes, Paphiopedilum, identification, endangered species, taxonomy Introduction Peninsular Malaysia has been blessed with a large number of plant species with high representation of the Orchidaceae family including the genus Paphiopedilum.

    POLLEN MORPHOLOGY OF THE CYPRIPEDIOIDEAE AND THE APOSTASIOIDEAE (ORCHIDACEAE) by Gilbert D. Newton * and Norris H. Williams* INTRODUCTION Various taxonomic systems have been proposed for the Orchidaceae. Dressler and Dodson (1960) divided the Orchidaceae into two subfamilies: Cypripedioideae and Orchidoideae. The Orchidoideae is the larger subfamily and they considered it the more advanced because the androecium is reduced to one anther. In contrast, the Cypripedioideae contains species with either two or three anthers. Dressler and Dodson considered the Apostasieae and Cypripedieae as tribes in the subfamily Cypripedioideae, but maintained that the Apostasieae may not be related to the Cypripedieae even though they show the same basic plan of flower structure. The Apostasieae have unspe­ cialized four-locular anthers with powdery pollen, the most primitive pollen­ unit condition in the Orchidaceae. In the Cypripedieae the grains are not united into larger units, but the pollen is rather viscid, a condition also con­ sidered primitive. Dressler (1974) later classified both groups as subfamilies, Apostasioideae and Cypripedioideae, and described them as relict groups, each with a few living genera. Garay (1972) disagrees with Dressler and Dodson (1960) that the Apos­ tasieae is a tribe in the Cypripedioideae. According to Garay (1972), the only two genera in the group, Apostasia and Neuwiedia, are not even closely related, but are relict survivors of ancient anagenetic lines. Yet Rao (1974) stated that the external morphology of the flowers and their vasculature show a close affinity between the two genera. Nevertheless, Garay (1972) and Dressler (1974) maintain that the Apostasioideae should be included in the Orchidaceae if the Cypripedioideae are included.

    SelbY!ln!l 7: 129-247 THE RELATIONSHIPS OF THE SLIPPER ORCHIDS (SUBFAMILY CYPRIPEDIOIDEAE, ORCHIDACEAE) John T. A twood, Jr. * ABSTRACT The phylogenetic relationships of the Cypripedioideae are adumbrated by the Wagner Groundplan-divergence method. The mutual resemblance be­ tween paleotropical Paphiopedilum and neotropicalPhragmipedium is doubt­ fully superficial since both share several derived vegetative character states and similar floral bud development. For these genera a simplified classifi­ cation is proposed, and one new taxonomic combination is provided. Selenipedium grades into Cypripedium via C. irapeanum and C. caUtor­ nicum. The correlation of reduced vegetative features with increasing lati­ tude suggests that temperate climates have altered the northern taxa most. By eliminating these features from cladistic analysis, C. arietinum (for which the genus Criosanthes is recommended) is parsimoniously distinct from the 3e/enipedium-Cypripedium clade. Similar flowers of Phragmipedium schlimii and Paphiopedilum subgenus Brachypetalum relate to neoteny, since the floral parts resemble those of young flower buds of related species. Their superficial floral similarity is in­ terpreted as a convergence. Chromosome numbers are reported for five species of Phragmipedium and nine species of Paphiopedilum. Since the basal chromosome number is interpreted as 2n = 20 for Cypripedium, Criosanthes, and Phragmipedium, this is probably the basal number for the subfamily. Although centric fission accounts for the upward aneuploid series in Paphiopedilum (2n = 26-44), higher metacentric arm ratios in the aneuploids than in the non-aneuploids suggest that centric fusion has occurred as well. It is argued that both fission and fusion have karyologically repatterned Paphiopedilum section Barbata with concurrent adaptation to florest floors.
