G. elata thus offers the possibility of obtaining a valuable insight into the genetic basis of mycoheterotrophy.
Gastrodia elata Blume. (G. elata)—a heterotrophic orchid with high medicinal value—faces sustainability challenges due to its ecological specificity. This review highlights critical factors governing its
Gastrodia elata Blume (G. elata) has a long historical application in Asian countries and its tubers, seeds, and stalks are capable of being utilized for medicine, food, or health care products.
Gastrodia elata is a widely distributed achlorophyllous orchid and is highly valued as both medicine and food. Gastrodia elata produces dust-like seeds and relies on mycorrhizal fungi for its germination and
Gastrodia elata, a mycoheterotrophic orchid, is a well-known medicinal herb. In nature, the seed germination of G. elata requires proper fungal association, because of the absence of endosperm.
Gastrodia elata Blume (G. elata Bl.) is a dual-purpose herb for medicine and food. Wild resources are depleted, and there is a significant decrease in yield or quality when they are cultivated artificially.
The growth-promoting solution and the inoculation substrate are prepared by treatment of fresh G. elata stalks with Bacillus pumilus and hot-dip extraction treatment in ethanol.
Therefore, this study aims to elucidate the dynamics of soil bacterial communities and soil micro-enviroment characteristics under G. elata monoculture conditions.
We present the 1.06 Gb sequenced genome of Gastrodia elata, an obligate mycoheterotrophic plant, which contains 18,969 protein-coding genes.
Gastrodia elata cannot carry out photosynthesis because it has no chlorophyll.
