Development Of V Cryo-Plate Method Of Ludisia Discolor (Ker Gawl.) A. Rich For Long-Term Germplasm Conservation

Ludisia discolor is a jewel orchid that is well known for the striking leaves than its flowers. Other than being used as an ornamental plant, this orchid is also being exploited for its medicinal properties. Hence, L. discolor facing possible depletion in its natural habitat lately due to over-harve...
