Se creó un formulario para la toma de datos durante la descripción de orquídeas en el campo y en el laboratorio. Éste contempla las caracteristicas más importantes que deben ser anotadas para una posterior identificación de las especies con el uso de claves dicotómicas. Además, incluye listas de los téminos botá- nicos más comunes utilizados en la descripción de plantas y flores. Su utilidad es muy grande, tanto para afi- sionados como profesionales, para facilitar la toma de datos y para asegurar que ésta sea lo más completa y sistemática posible. El formulario está disponible en formato pdf en www.bosquedepaz.com

The time to senescence of flowers in Dendrobium hybrids is different and one of the major reasons for this variation in vase life can be related to differences in the level of ethylene sensitivity. This study was conducted to determine the sensitivity of six cut Dendrobium hybrids to exogenous ethylene. The cut orchid inflorescences were treated with or without 10 µL/L ethylene gas for 24 h, and then placed in bottles containing a standard vase solution. Water loss, vase life, anthocyanin contents and ethylene production were determined after the treatments. The results indicated that different hybrids showed distinct variances in ethylene sensitivities and degrees of deterioration. Dendrobium 'Darren Glory' and D. 'Jaquelyne Concert' × D. 'Rinappa' exhibited the utmost hyponasty, weight loss and degradation of anthocyanin content in sepals and petals. Thus, these two hybrids were categorized as the very sensitive group. On the other hand, D. 'Sonia Red', D. 'Shavin White', D. 'Sonia White' and D. 'Sonia Bom' showed lower sensitivity and hence were categorized in the less sensitive group. The results of this experiment and similar experiments to determine the resistant and susceptible cultivars to ethylene injury can be helpful in improving the postharvest life of cut orchid flowers.
