The morphological features of the transfer cell and the absence of cuticular material in the Suspensor cell wall corroborate the hypothesis that the suspensor is the major nutrient uptake site for the developing embryo in the lady's slipper orchid.

Totipotent callus of Cypripedium formosanum was induced from seed-derived protocorm segments on a quarter-strength Murashige and Skoog medium containing 4.52 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 1-phenyl-3-(1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-yl)-urea (thidiazuron).

The results of Nile red staining indicate that a cuticular layer is present only on the surface walls of the embryo proper, but is absent from the suspensor cell wall Cuticular material is also present in the outermost layer of the seed coat and persists through seed maturation.

For seed germination, the results indicate that the timing of seed collection outweighs the composition of medium and the seed pretreatments.

The CAM photosynthetic capacity of mature leaves remained high after maturation and began to decline at a leaf age of 240 days, and the trend was consistent with malate fi xation but the highest nocturnal malate concentration was observed in 100-day-old leaves.

It is suggested that high concentrations of endogenous ABA in orchid seeds may play a critical role in arresting embryo growth and in preventing seed germination.

The results indicate that ABA is the key inhibitor of germination in C. formosanum, and the distinct accumulation pattern of ABA suggests that it is synthesized in the cytosol of embryo cells during the early stages of seed development, and then exported to the apoplastic region of the cells for subsequent regulatory processes as seeds approach maturity.
