  3. 1 INTRODUCTION 1. Urgency of research topic Of all popularly planted types of flowers, orchids are known as a flower not only beautiful, fragrant, multi – colorful, but also are of high economic value. So far, mankinds have learned on more than 750 orchid branches with 35000 wild orchids species and 75000 orchid cultivars as a result of selection and breeding [33]. In Vietnam, there are about 1003 species of orchids available [ 33 ]. These are very abundant plant resources to serve the creatation and breeding of new varieties of orchids. However, most of these orchids can only be exploited and cultivated in natural conditions, technical measures have not yet been applied, so their yields and qualities are not high that can not meet the requirements of consumers. Whereas the exotic orchids have their advantages as having good growth and healthy development, high yields , good quality of flowers: big flowers, beautiful colors, various diversified, durable and long -lasting flowers and that their flower blooming time can be controlled for the occasions of Holidays or Lunar New Year Celebration, that has brought about high economic efficiency to growers. Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium are pretty orchids species popularly esteemed by the markets. It is attractive to consumers with diversified colors, beguiling aroma and especially, commercial producers are attracted by the durability of flowers. However, the actual production of these orchids in Vietnam still faces many difficulties. Lan Cattleya, Dendrobium , Oncidium orchids are very suitable the climate in Southern areas as of its all - year-round warm weather, great sun radiation and long appropriate sunlight for plant to grow and develop, whereas the climatic condition in the North is not favorable due to high summer temperatures (33 - 380C), high humidity and high sunlight intensity that causes a negative impact to the growth of the plants, making the plants susceptible to leaf blight, high percentage to rotten disease prevalence. In Winter, the temperatures is too low, weak sunlight intensity, short sunlight during the days are also not favorable for plant growth , development and giving flowers. On the other hand, as for lack of good seeds, technical inconsistency and inappropriate caring process ... the production cuold not bring about high efficiency, quantity and quality of orchids still can not meet consumer requirements, while the demand for the above mentioned orchids is very high. In order to overcome this limitation, enabling plant orchids in general and Cattleya, Dendrobium and Oncidium orchids in particular to

  6. 4 Chapter 1 OVERVIEW 1.1 General Overview of the orchid Cattleya , Dendrobium , Oncidium Cattleya (Cattleya orchids) includes about 65,000 primitive species and numerous outvarietal and intervarietal crossed species. They are native to tropical America, mostly in the mountains with altitude from 600 - 1800 m [46]. Dendrobium (Hoang Thao orchid) is the largest genus in orchid family, consisting of over 1,600 species whose distribution stretches from Korea, Japan, Indonesia ... to Australia. In Vietnam, over 200 species of orchid Dendrobium has been recorded [ 94 ]. Oncidium (dancing lady) consists of about 400-600 species originating from the America and subtropical regions. They can be found from Florida to the Bahamas, Caribbean Islands and southern Mexico, Central and South America to Argentina [122]. By studying botanical characteristics and for external requirements for Cattleyas, Dendrobium, Oncidium, it is shown that climatic condition of Vietnam can absolutely be suitable for the culture of this species, particularly in the provinces of the Southern region. However, because of the cold weather in the northern provinces, the plants are less developed and grown. To develop this orchid in production, it is necessary to pay special attention to the uses of substrates, fertilizers, growth regulators, flowering stimulants and flowering control measures on the occasions of Tet and Holidays. 1.2 The status on production and consumption of Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium orchids in the world and in Vietnam: Export markets of orchids on the world are ever-expandin. European Union (EU), North America and Japan are still biggist areas to consume most cut- orchids, although China is also becoming an important market. Only 25 countries of the EU on average have spent 13.7 billion USD/year (CBI, 2007) for consumer cut- orchids, mainly Dendrobium and Oncidium, accounting for over 50% of total orchid consumption. Of which, Germany topped with the expendicture of about 3 billion euros per year. The folowing 5 countries with high demand are the UK (2.82 billion ), France (1.85 billions), Italy (1.62 billions), Spain (0.99 billions) and the Netherlands (0.89 billion ) [ 118 ]. Japanese consumer demand by 5.4 million/year
  7. 5 on cut orchid, U.S: $ 5.5 billion [119]. It can be said that orchid production has brought about very highly profits for developed and developing countries. Besides, Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium account up for the bulk of total production and consumption of orchids in the world. This proves that these flowers bring high economic efficiency to growers and preferred by consumers. Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium are common orchids genera which bring high economic efficiency for the orchid production branches of orchid growing countries over the world. In recent years, thanks to the expansion of production and development of these orchids, significant economic benefits have been brought about to countries such as Thailand, Taiwan, Singapore, China ... With similar climatic conditions to these countries and experienced growers, the Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium orchid genera can be grown and fully developed in Vietnam . Orchid growing area in Vietnam is t at modes level, only accounting for 10 % of the flowers growing areas [23]. Production of orchids in Vietnam concentrates in 2 main directions : - Production of newly bred or selected orchid species or or imported ones in industrial scales (industrial orchids). - Exploiting and cultivating native orchids species (wild orchids). Thus, the production, trading of orchids in Vietnam so far still remains in the form of potentiality. Meanwhile, the competitiveness on the world market is very huge. The trading activities and export in recent years are only at launching stage that leads to a promising future for development of these flowers basing on the existing favorable conditions for the development of orchid growing branch. 1.3 Status of research on Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium orchids in the world and in Vietnam: 1.3.1 Status of research on Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium orchids in the world For many years, due to high economic and aesthetic values of orchid plants, that developed countries in the world have used traditional techniques and modern methods for breeding and selecting flowers in general and for orchids in particular and have achieved very satisfactory results, especially on some industrial orchids as Dancing lady (Oncidium), Hoang Thao (Dendrobium), Cat (Cattleya) and some other orchids and these have brought about big financial resources for orchids producing branches in countries as Netherlands, China, Taiwan, Thailand ...
  8. 6 The above results show that the world has had a lot of research work on orchid plants, in general and on the genera of Cattleyas, Dendrobium and Oncidium, in particular. The study focused on a number of areas such as plant breeding and seed multiplication, technical planting measures and measures for pests and diseases preventions, ... 1.3.2 Status of research on Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium orchids in Vietnam In Vietnam, there have been many studies on collectioconservation the genetic resources of native orchids and exotic cultivars as well as evaluation and selection of promising orchid varieties for production and concentrate to study technical measures on substrates, fertilizers, flowering control techniques, pest prevention ... The research results that have been applied in production have initially brought about positive effectiveness in the development of orchid cultivation in Vietnam. However, new researches have just been carried out on some objects and technical process for planting, taking adequate care of the orchids, especially Cattleya, Dendrobium and Oncidium, have not been completed. From the results of the study, it is shown that Cattleya, Dendrobium and Oncidium can fully grow and develop well in Vietnam, especially in the southern region due to the warm climate all the year round. In the northern delta regions, due to cold winter temperature, the plants can not grow and develop well, and very often there are virtually no flowering in winter time. To develop and grow the orchid genus Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium in condition of Northern Delta region, it is necessary to deeply study the growth, development and flowering characteristics of these cultivars. At the same time, research on technical planting measures to increase survival rate, to reduce the incidence of soft rotten disease of seedlings in summer time and increase flowering rate, flower quality of mature plants in winter time for the introduced hybrid orchids belonging to the 3 above - mentioned orchid genera.

Chapter 3 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1 Assessment of growth and development and selection of some exotic hybrid orchid cultivars of 3 orchid genera Cattleya , Dendrobium, Oncidium. 3.1.1 Some growth characteristics of exotic hybrid orchids at nursery stage At the nursery stage , Oncidium and Dendrobium orchid have relatively high survival rate (48.7 to 72.2 %), the Cattleya orchid has lower survival rate (39.5 to 52.8 %). However, in the hot, humid summer conditions of the Northern Delta
  12. 10 region, soft rotten disease prevalence is relatively high, thus it has significantly reduced the proportion of seedlings ready for planting. Therefore, in the nursery stage, applying technical measures (substrates, fertilizers, growth stimulants ...) to reduce the incidence of soft rotten disease in seedlings is a critical necessity for production .

In the varietal study on Dendrobium and Oncidium varieties, cultivars On1 and Den5 have the best criteria
  16. 14 on flower quality. This is the basis for the selection of promising varieties for production . Thus, the testing results showed that the majority of the imported Cattleya orchid, Dendrobium and Oncidium are of good growth and development, strong tillering ability and uniformity. The studied varieties proved their suitability for the climatic conditions of the northern delta region, have good flowering, various and beautiful flower colors, high natural durability, representing the color characteristic of the varieties. These varieties are well resistant to pests and diseases, harmful insects. 3.2 Research on technical measures for the exotic hybrid orchid cultivars belonging to 3 selected orchid genera of Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium at the nursery stage 3.2.1 Influence of the seasonal growing time to the growth of selected orchids at nursery stage Table 3:11 .

Effect of growth regulators to the survival rate of the selected orchids at nursery stage Thus, in the nursery stage, to increase the growth potential for the selected orchids Cat6, Den5 and On1, spraying Atonik with dosage of 0.1%, 7 days/time helped seedlings to grow well, increase survival rate, reduce soft rotten disease incidence, increase plant height and tillering caapacity of seedlings. 3.3 Research on technical measures for the selected orchids in the garden production stage 3.3.1 Effect of shading measures to the growth, development and quality of orchid flower Cultivar Den5 3.3.1.2 Effect of shading measures to the ability of flowering of the orchid Den5 So, with orchid Den5, shading with 2 layer, reflective mesh: 1 fixed layer, one semi-automatic control layer (light intensity 18000-22000 lux) is most suitable for summer conditions in the North Delta area that helps the plant to grow and develop well, increase the ability to achieve higher flowering to 90.7 %, increase flower length, flower diameter and increase the durability of the flowers. This result is quite right to the affirmation of Nguyen Thi Kim Ly (2009), [26] when she asserted that the suitable intensity of light for Dendrobium orchid was from 15000- 30000 lux.

The mixture of substrate of pea gravel + tree bark + seaweed with proportion 2:2:1 is best suited for the growth, development and
  20. 18 quality enhancement for On1 orchid flower. The research results are consistent with the assertion of Tran Van Bao (2001) [1] and Viet Chuong (2001) [5] when they comfirmed that using tree bark and seaweed (firn) as substrate for growing orchids was very good. However, with the conditions in the North Delta area, for On1 orchid cultivar, it is necessary to add pea gravel. This is a very important component to mix as substrate for Oncidium orchids. 3.3.3 Influence of foliar fertilizer to the growth, development and flower quality of orchid cultivar Cat6. 3.3.3.2 Influence of foliar fertilizers on the flowering ability of orchid cultivar Cat6 Table 3:26. Effect of some foliar fertilizers to flowering ability of orchid Cat6 (December, 2010 - Phu Thuong, Tay Ho, Ha Noi) Criteria Number of Flowering Average No of No of Effective buds / ability flower stems / flowers / plant Treatment plant (%) plant (stem) (flowers) (buds) CT1 (Cntrl) 56.7 1.4 3.3 3.2 CT2 58.6 1.5 3.4 3.2 CT3 57.1 1.5 3.5 3.4 CT4 67.3 1.5 3.5 3.4 CT5 69.5 1.5 3.5 3.5 CT6 73.2 1.6 3.7 3.7 CV% 6.3 5.8 5.6 LSD0.05 0.2 0.4 0.3 Thus, it can be seen that foliar fertilizers affected the ability of flowering of orchids Cat6. Fertilizer Hydrophos (CT6) with dose of 0.1%, spraying 1 time/week would help orchid cultivar Cat6 strongly bear flowers, more stems (1.6 stems/ plant) and the high rate of effective flowers blooming (73.2%). This result is quite right to the assertation of Nguyen Cong Nghiep (2000) [29] when said that when applying fertilizers to Cattleyas, in addition to maintaining the growth and development, it was also aiming to control the flowering of these orchids. The study results also found out that Hydrophos fertilizer (Treatment 6) is of high of P and K which gave best performance on Cat6 orchid. This is also consistent with findings of Pham Thi Lien (2010) [20] while studying the effects of foliar fertilizers to flowering and flower quality of Dendrobium. 3.4 Research some techniques to control of flowering for selected orchid cultivars of Cattleya, Dendrobium, Oncidium 3.4.1 Influence of the types of additional lighting lamps to the flowering capabilities and flower quality of orchid cultivars Den5 and On1.
