23 & me for orchids. Does it exist?
Hello all,
I am rather curious if there exists some kind of genetic testing for orchid hybrids (or plants in general) that shows ancestry. Something akin to 23 and me. Is there a service where you could send some plant DNA in and it is analyzed for what “ingredients” are in a hybrid? I have some very complex NOID plants I am curious about.
Does such a service exist? If it does, how would I find it?
I guess in the case of orchids, instead of 23 and me, it would be somewhere around 40, 46, or 52 and me. I think I heard somewhere the chromosomal range for orchids is 10-168 with most genera having between 38-78
