title: [Effect of Nutrient Solution in Soilless Cultivation on Growth, Antioxidase Activities and Amino Acid Contents of Nervilia fordii].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To select the best formula for soilless cultivation of Nervilia fordii.
  
  
  METHODS
  Four different formulas of nutrient solution on growth,antioxidase activities and amino acid contents were investigated.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The concentration of 1/2 lettuce nutrient solution formula was the most propitious for the growth of Nervilia fordii, the antioxidase activities and amino acid contents were increased in the treatment of nutrient solution,and the highest amino acid content was observed in 1/2 dose of green leafy vegetables nutrient solution formula.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The concentration of 1/2 lettuce nutrient solution formula is the optimal solution for growth of Nervilia fordii, the results of this study provides academic and technological basis for soilless cultivation of Nervilia fordii.
