Phalaenopsis is popular as its global cultivation and universal application, but plenty of Phalaenopsis germplasm resources bring tremendous difficulties and energy loss to the variety identification and utilization and the production management. Previous studies have shown that core collection could directly resolve the contradiction between the germplasm collection and effective utilization. In this paper, the steps, methods and the evaluation index of Phalaenopsis core collection construction were introduced by using morphological traits and SSR molecular markers, and then the conception of constructing Phalaenopsis core collection was proposed. |
