A total of 77 vanilla accessions (65 V. planifolia and 12 other Vanilla spp.) are being conserved under polyhouse and field conditions.
During hardening of tissue culture plants, 100% survival across all potting media was achieved. Vermiculite + perlite (3:1) produced the best growth and root traits.
Protocols for the quantification of major flavour compounds were standardized. Accessions 4751 (2.3%) and G9 (2.0%) recorded high vanillin content, while V. andamanica (pink type) showed very low vanillin content.
