To study on the optimal medium ingredients for PLB induction and proliferation of Dendrobium officinale.Seed embryos of Dendrobium officinale were cultivated in MS medium as the basic medium, along with different plant hormones like 6-BA, NAA,2,4-D and KT or their combinations added with organic additives like PE, BE, AE and CM.BA and NAA combination was not conductive to germination and the germination ratio was even lower than that of MS medium; 10% PE and CM was beneficial to PLB induction; 2,4-D was not conductive to growth and proliferation; A certain concentration of BA, KT and NAA was beneficial to PLB proliferation; KT at 1.0 mg/L recorded the highest 40 d PLB proliferation times at 9.0; PE, CM and AE could promote the PLB proliferation at different levels, among which 10% CM was the most effective.The optimized medium ingredients suitable for PLB induction are MS +10% CM +1.0g/L AC; The optimized medium ingredients suitable for PLB proliferation are MS + 1.0 mg/L KT + 0.2 mg/L NAA + 10% CM.
