Abstract
Plants belonging to the Dendrobium genus occupy a dominant position among the orchids because of their high ornamental and therapeutic values. They are widely popular in the international floriculture trade as they bear stunning flowers with diverse coloration, varied forms, and patterns. The ethnomedicinal uses of these orchids are also prominently found due to the possession of immense medicinal properties. Excessive exploitation through rampant unregulated collection and widespread habitat destruction have dwindled the Dendrobium natural populations at an alarming rate. The fast and reliable micropropagation techniques offer an alternative to the slow conventional methods of Dendrobium propagation. The rapid in vitro regeneration of genetically stable Dendrobiums is essential for effective germplasm conservation and large-scale orchid commercialization. Several genetic stable Dendrobiums have been successfully propagated by ascertaining the clonal fidelity of the regenerants using different molecular markers. This chapter focuses on the uses of Dendrobiums as important ethnomedicine, their in vitro propagation, and clonal assessment for producing genetically stable orchids using DNA markers.
