Abstract
A study on the growth of plb of intergeneric hybrids between Phalaenopsis 2166 and Vanda ‘saint valentine’ on four different in vitro culture media was conducted. This study was aimed to find out the best growth medium for an intergeneric hybrid between Phalaenopsis 2166 and Vanda ‘saint valentine,’ and to obtain medium producing the best roots for the hybrids. The media used were MS, NP, VW, and Knudson. The results showed that all four in vitro culture media were suitable for the hybrid growth. In addition, medium NP (New Phalaenopsis) produced the best and longest root length. Hence, it was recommended to be used for growing plb of the intergeneric hybrids between Phalaenopsis 2166 and Vanda ‘saint valentine’ before acclimatization.
