egeneration. Similar result was also found in Calanthe densiflora [16; Cymbidium (21]; Satyrium nepalense [221 and Gastrochilus calceolaris [23] orchid species. MS media is enriched with macronutrients, micronutrients and vitamins which are enhanced for seed germination and seedling development of many orchids [24-251, Carbon source has also great role for in vitro orchid seed germination. Sugar is an important component used in tissue culture studies. Among three carbon sources, the percentage of seed germination was higher in sucrose containing medium than glucose and lactose containing media respectively.
