Rapid Vegetative Propagation of Curculigo orchioides Gaertn. using Rhizome Cutting, Endangered Medicinal Herb

Abstract

Curculgo orchioides is an endangered medicinal herb belonging to the family Hypoxidaceae. Natural regeneration of C. orchioides limited due to poor seed viability and germination. The effects of rhizome cutting position (rhizome bud, distal rhizome and end rhizome rhizome) on shoot regeneration and rooting ability of C. orchioides rhizome cuttings were investigated. The highest shoot regenerations were for the end rhizome segment whereas, the average shoot length for rhizome bud segments was highest comparing among treatments. Meanwhile, the rooting ability for were significantly higher in end rhizome segments than remaining treatments. This study to determine the best vegetative propagation protocol was carried out for C. orchioides
