Analysis and Categorization of Several Dendrobium Species Based on Morphological Traits

Abstract

Dendrobium Sw. is the a highly diversified Orchidaceae genus with at least 100 identified species in Vietnam. Classification and description of this genus in Vietnam suffered from a number of setbacks such as lack of synchronization and photographic illustrations, which rendered identification and researches of Dendrobium samples a daunting task. Therefore, this study constructed the database of morphological descriptions along with sample images of forty Dendrobium samples in Vietnam. Based on this database, species in the Dendrobium genus were analyzed and categorized to create a clear-illustrated information resource which is easy to use by non-specialized users.

Photosynthesis and Flowering of Dendrobium Orchids at Different Light Intensities

“…Anggrek Dendrobium endemik Indonesia juga banyak ditemukan di hutan dengan daerah sebaran yang cukup luas. Terdapat sekitar 1.200-1.500 spesies dan lebih dari 1.600 jenis hibrida di dunia (Nguyen et al, 2020). Produksi anggrek potong di Indonesia tahun 2018 mencapai 24.717.840 potong, namun pada tahun 2021 mengalami penurunan menjadi 11.351.615 (BPS, 2021), sehingga perlu adanya upaya peningkatan kuantitas dan kualitas anggrek potong.…”
