a description will now be given , with reference to the embodiments and drawings according to the present invention . first , in order to achieve a seed formation with an unfertilized flower , a treatment with auxin is done . it is appropriate to treat with auxin within 30 days after a bloom day . as a treated part , column or a part including column is treated by auxin solution by spraying , coating or dropping . fig1 is views showing general form of orchid flowers ( kazuhito uchida , 1982 , “ tropical orchid the orchid ”, kodansha , 99 ). in order to prevent the solution falling by gravity because of facing downward of flowers depending on kind of varieties and blooming situation of orchid , it is also effective in the treating part to stagnate auxin by mixing agar , starch , etc . in the solution and improving viscosity by heating or by making lanolin suspension and forming a paste . indoleacetic acid ( iaa ), 4 - chloro - indoleacetic acid , phenylacetic acid , 2 , 4 - dichloro - phenoxyacetic acid ( 2 , 4 - d ), α - naphthaleneacetic acid ( naa ), 2 , 6 - dichloro - benzoic acid , indolebutyric acid ( iba ), 4 - chloro - phenoxyacetic acid , 5 - chloro - indazole ethyl acetate , 2 , 4 , 5 - trichloro - phenylacetic acid can be used as auxin . a withering of perianth is observed immediately after the treatment , and hypertrophy of ovary will be found in about one week . although the growth of ovary and the seed formation differ from depending on kind of varieties of orchid , set of seeds is observed from two to six months after treatment . in the meantime , it fully needs to be cautious of fall off seeds . also , compared with the usual mating and fruition , seeds may ripen a little early about one to two months . the ripen seeds are obtained and these seeds are planted by the germfree condition . the planting is performed according to the conventional method . the rate of germination of seeds becomes low compared with the usual mating of seeds . if germination is observed and these buds grow in regular sizes , it will affirm promptly whether they are haploid plants . the check of being haploid plants takes out some tissues of root tips , measures the number of chromosomes or amounts of dna contents , and is performed by comparing these values with plants originating in self - pollination . because the number of the chromosomes of haploid plants may have doubled naturally after passing a regular period after germination , it is necessary to perform the check of haploid plants within one to five months after germination . hereafter , one embodiment is explained as a preferred embodiment of the invention . in the first embodiment , bletilla . brigantes “ h5 - 11 ” was used . the supplied testing plants were grown in the conventional method . the blooming was affirmed , pollens were removed and a treatment of dropping of 10 micro liter was performed with the warmed lanolin paste which contains 2 % of α - naphthaleneacetic acid at column using the syringe . since two or more flowers might exist in the same inflorescence , the above - mentioned treatment was performed about for each one repeatedly five or more times . after individuals in which its ovary got fat are ripened completely ( 6 to 7 months after the treatment ), then they were obtained , they were sterilized their surface for 5 minutes with 0 . 5 % of sodium hydrochlorite solution , planted them on a medium in germfree container , and the germination was forced . after planting , when the number of planted seeds and the number of seed with embryo were observed , 11 seeds with embryo were observed out of 7000 of the planted total number of seeds . the composition of a culture medium used for planting of seeds is shown in table 1 . after plants originating in auxin treatment grew in the suitable size for sampling ( 1 to 2 months after germination ), dna contents of these plants originating in auxin treatment were measured by flow cytometry , then chromosomes were observed simultaneously and the number of chromosomes was investigated . the investigation was done by obtaining new leaf of seedling , plants treated with α - naphthaleneacetic acid ( naa ) of the present invention were investigated and also plants originating in self - pollination were investigated as a comparison . fig2 is views showing results of analysis based on flow cytometry . fig3 is views showing observation results of chromosomes under a microscope . as can be seen in fig2 , in the investigation for dna amounts using flow cytometry equipment , a peak of the plant originating in auxin treatment was observed at position of half ploidy level of a peak seen with the plant originating in self - pollination . in the observation of chromosomes , as can be seen in fig3 , it was observed that the number of chromosomes of the plant originating in auxin treatment was 16 , and it was found that this is half of the number of chromosomes , 32 chromosomes for bletilla bringantes . 5 to 6 months after germination , when dna contents of plants originating in auxin treatment was measured again with flow cytometry equipment , its peak is observed at the almost same position of a peak of plants originating in self - pollination . thus , it should be recognized that the number of chromosomes of plants originating in auxin treatment was doubled naturally 2 to 5 months after germination . from these results of observations , it is recognized that plants originating in auxin treatment are haploid . it is also recognized that the number of chromosomes of plants originating in auxin treatment becomes doubled naturally as time goes by after auxin treatment , and that it is required to affirm the number of chromosomes within two months after germination . as already mentioned above , the growing orchid haploid of the present invention is able to provide a pure line plant which is required in constructing a seed propagation variety of orchid , thereby , a supply of stable superior breed with low risks like mutations becomes possible for a long period of time . the present invention is not limited to the specifically disclosed embodiments , and variations and modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention . the present application is based on japanese priority application no . 2002 - 213746 filed on jul . 23 , 2002 , the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference .
it is intended to provide a pure line plant which is required in constructing a seed propagation variety of orchid . an auxin solution is dropped to unfertilized orchid flowers so as to form seeds based on parthenogenesis . then these seeds are germinated and haploid plants are selected from orchid plants thus grown . the germinating seeds judges as haploid plants are grown to give pure line plants having doubled chromosomes . thus , a seed propagation variety of orchid is obtained .
