Admittedly I'm out of my depth where tissue culture is concerned, but I came across this abstract while doing research on a different topic:

The authors were able to make protocorm-like bodies from a leaf of a Doritanopsis.


Why wouldn't this work for paphs?

From what I understand mericloning Paphs is difficult because one can't
maintain sterility of the meristemmatic tissue.

However it looks like one doesn't need meristammatic tissue anymore.

Any information is welcome.

(Yes, I probably misspelled meristemmatic, sorry.)
