    Notes: Abstract The seeds of a Japanese terrestrial orchid (Bletilla striata Rchb.f.) were germinated and cultured on solidified new Dogashima (ND) medium for 10 days. These embryos were then precultured on ND medium supplemented with 0.3 m sucrose for 3 days at 25°C in continuous dark. The embryos were then overlaid with a mixture of 2 m glycerol and 0.4 m sucrose for 15 min at 25°C and finally dehydrated with highly concentrated vitrification solution (PVS2) for 3 h at 0°C prior to immersion into liquid nitrogen for 30 min. After rapid warming, the embryos were washed with liquid ND medium supplemented with 1.2 m sucrose for 20 min and then plated on ND medium. Successfully vitrified and warmed embryos developed into normal plantlets. The rate of plant regeneration amounted to about 60%. This vitrification method appears to be a promising technique for cryopreservation of orchids.

    Notes: Abstract In vitro-grown shoot tips of taro (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott.) were successfully cryopreserved by vitrification. Excised shoot tips precultured on solidified MS supplemented with 0.3 M sucrose and maintained under a 16 h phtoperiod at 25°C for 16 h were loaded with a mixture of 2 M glycerol plus 0.4 M sucrose for 20 min at 25°C. The shoot tips were then sufficiently dehydrated with a highly concentrated vitrification solution (PVS2) for 20 min at 25°C prior to immersion into liquid nitrogen. Successfully vitrified and warmed shoot tips resumed growth within 7 days and developed shoots directly without intermediate callus formation. The average rate of shoot recovery amounted to around 80%, and the vitrification protocol appeared to be very promising for the cryopreservation of taro germplasm.

    Notes: Abstract  Alginate-coated meristems from in vitro-grown axillary buds of mint (Mentha spicata L.) were successfully cryopreserved by vitrification. Excised meristems from nodal segments cold hardened at 4  °C for 3 weeks were encapsulated and osmoprotected by a mixture of 2 M glycerol plus 0.4 M sucrose. These meristems were dehydrated with a highly concentrated vitrification solution (PVS2 solution) for 3 h at 0  °C prior to a plunge into liquid nitrogen. Successfully encapsulated vitrified meristems developed shoots within a week after plating without intermediary callus formation. The average rate of shoot formation amounted to nearly 90%. This procedure was successfully applied to other Mentha species. It was also confirmed that encapsulated vitrified meristems produced a much higher rate of shoot formation than the encapsulated dried meristems. Thus, this revised encapsulation vitrification method appears promising for the cryopreservation of mint and other germplasm.
