Objective Using stem tip of Gymnadenia conopsea in this experiment to investigate somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration in vitro.Methods Uniform dedign for the most suitable media for embryogenic callus induction and embryogenic cell complex,development of somatic embryo and plant regeneration were screened.Results The results showed that Chaturvedi and Mitra(CM)+6-BA 1.0 mg/L+IAA 2.0 mg/L+2,4-D 0.1 mg/L was fit for embryogenic callus and embryogenic cell complex induction.Percentage was 98%;The medium of development of somatic embryo and plant regeneration was CM+6-BA 1.00 mg/L+IAA 0.10 mg/L.Percentage was 100% and converted into plantlets with shoots and roots after 50 d culture on the same medium.Conclusion The observation of morphostructure and ultrastructure proves the process of somatic embryogenesis of G.conopsea.
