6 Foreword I take great pleasure in writing the foreword to this book, The Physiology of Tropical Orchids in Relation tt the Industry, which relates to a thriving industry. Cut-flower orchid production and potted orchid cultivation have been a mainstay agro-industry in South East Asia and indeed, throughout the world. In order to sustain and nurture the growth of the industry, new and improved agro-technology is needed. The scientific disciplines that contribute to improving orchid production technology have been developed to such sophisticated and specialised levels that the trial-and-error approach generally adopted by orchid hobbyists and commercial growers can no longer be depended upon to meet the demands of a global cut-flower market. Scientific studies on orchid biology are paving the way for the orchid industry. If orchid researchers, hobbyists and commercial growers can be provided with convenient access to more recent research findings, clearly these would greatly enhance their efforts in meeting the challenge of improving the production technology. There are very few orchid books in the world that deal specifically with the scientific aspects of orchid biology and cultivation. In South East Asia, there is not, as yet, an organised source of tropical orchid literature suited for the study of orchid biology and the direct application of this knowledge to serve the industry. The contribution of Professor Hew Choy Sin and Mr Jean Yong to tropical orchid biology and industry is therefore both valuable and timely. This book is written in response to the growing demand for an orchid physiology book with a tropical perspective both in Singapore and her neighbouring South East Asian countries. This pioneering book aims at defining the status of our present knowledge of orchid physiology, with an emphasis on tropical orchids, and considers how existing knowledge can be put to greater and more practical use. The authors have identified the gaps in our knowledge and discussed how V
7 vi Foreword these gaps can best be filled through additional research. The Physiology of Tropical Orchids in Relation to the Industry will be an important and useful source of information for university students, orchid researchers and commercial orchid growers. I congratulate the authors for sharing their expertise. Professor Leo Tan Director National Institute of Education Nanyang Technological University President Singapore National Academy of Science
8 Preface The fundamental aim underlying the writing of this book is the desire to provide a comprehensive and exclusive text of tropical orchid physiology relevant to commercial growers, research workers and graduate students. Over the past few decades, the orchid industry is growing at a steady pace in the South East Asian and East Asian regions, and it is becoming an essential export item in some Asian countries. To maintain this progress, there is an urgent need for a comprehensive book that is relevant to the region to guide orchid growers in improving their cultivation and management skills, and to guide new students in understanding orchid physiology. There are scientific books written on orchids that are very good, in our opinion, such as The Orchids: A Scientific Survey, Orchids: Scientific Studies, Fundamentals of Orchid Biology and the book series Orchid Biology: Reviews and Perspectives. We hope that this book would complement the existing scientific literature available to improve orchid cultivation and to set new research agenda especially in the tropics. The bulk of the text is based on the research effort of past graduate students, research associates and visiting scientists working with Professor C. S. Hew in Nanyang University and later, in the National University of Singapore. The duration of orchid research spans 26 years, first started in 1970, and is still been actively pursued till today. To fill the relevant gaps in information and for comparison purposes, relevant publications from other research groups are also included. This inevitably includes some discussion of the temperate orchids. The idea of this book was conceptualized when we were making a computer database of publications related to orchid physiology in We decided to take a step further and to produce an integrated and unifying theme of tropical orchid physiology with a clearly written factual text and illustration. The present cultural technology has given growers and hobbyists the opportunity to grow vii
9 Vlll Preface orchids anywhere in the world. As such, the strict demarcation of whether an orchid is a tropical or a temperate one is no longer possible. We proposed that the term "Tropical orchids" be perceived in a broad sense. There are nine chapters in this book. Each chapter is designed to provide a comprehensive, up-to-date information on an aspect of orchid physiology. References in the text are reduced to include only the leading authorities in the appropriate fields. Whilst it is recognised that the study of biological science follows no set pattern, the content of different chapters is written using a similar approach. Unlike the earlier chapters, Chap. 9 is a unique chapter where it deals with the problems and recent advances in orchid tissue culture. This chapter looks at the problems created by growing orchids in an artificial environment and offers practical solutions and new research directions to improve in vitro orchid growth.
