What is an orchid protocorm, and what does it do?
- From a developmental and functional standpoint, the orchid protocorm is a one-of-a-kind structure that is designed to build a symbiotic relationship with a suitable fungus and to generate a shoot apical meristem (SAM) for plantlet growth.
- Orchid seeds are very tiny and contain an embryo that is undifferentiated and lacking endosperm.
- A single seed pod contains a high number of tiny seeds that are suitable for wind dissemination.
- They are extremely light and dry.
- The embryonic form of orchids and club mosses is the protocorm, which is a tuberous mass of cells.
