Cryopreservation Of Oncidium Golden Anniversary’s Protocorm-Like Bodies Using Encapsulation-Dehydration Method

Oncidium Golden Anniversary is an orchid hybrid that has high economic value in flower market worldwide. However, this new orchid hybrid is difficult to maintain and cultivate conventionally thus increase the risk of permanent loss. Therefore, cryopreservation technique has been developed for long-t...
