RESUMEN
Paphiopedilum emersonii is an endemic terrestrial orchid in China. In this study, the chloroplast genome of P. emersonii was determined from BGISEQ-500 sequencing data. The total chloroplast genome was 162,590 bp in length, consisting of a large single-copy region (LSC, 87,852 bp), a small single-copy region (SSC, 870 bp), and two inverted repeat regions (IRA and IRB, 36,934 bp, each). The complete chloroplast genome contains 131 genes, including 81 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. In addition, the phylogenetic analysis indicates that P. emersonii was sister to Paphiopedilum micranthum. The chloroplast genome will contribute to the research and conservation of P. emersonii.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To study the tissue culture and rapid-proliferation techniques of Pueraria mirifica. METHOD: The tender branch were used as explants and cultivated in different media. The optimum media for inducing buds, proliferation and rooting were selected by adjusting the kinds and doses of plant hormones and special compounds. RESULT: The medium of MS + IBA 0.05 mg L(-1) + BA 0.5 mg L(-1) was suitable for buds inducing and could be used in the first generation cultivation; MS + IBA 0. 02 mg L(-1) + BA 0.2 mg L(-1) and MS +BA 0.1 mg L(-1) were employed by turns in subculture, 25 days propagation coefficient was 3.0; and the medium of 1/2MS + IBA 0.1 mg L(-1) + IAA 0.2 mg L(-1) + C (special compound) 10 mg L(-1) was used for roots inducing, the rooting rate was 76.9%. Rooting plantlets were transplanted in spring and summer; the surviving rate was 81.0%. CONCLUSION: This technique system could be employed for rapid propagation of P. mirifica.
