In vitro shoots of Phalaenopsis Aphrodite ‘Mantianhong’ which were infected by Cymbidium mosaic virus(CymMV) were used as initial materials in the study. Droplet vitrification protocol of shoot tips was established by screening sucrose concentrations in preculture medium, preculture time and time of exposure to PVS2 (Plant vitrification solution 2, PVS2). The regenerative shoot tips were induced to form protocorm-like-body(PLB) and differentiated to shoots. After detection by RT-PCR for CymMV, negative shoots were micropropagated and induced to form roots. The results showed that shoot tips being precultured on BM+0.6 mol·L-1 sucrose for 1-2 days was the optimal, resulting 70%-76.7% survival rate and 53.3%-56.7% regeneration rate of cryopreserved shoot tips. The optimal time duration of PVS2 was 60-90 minutes, resulting 73.3%-76.7% survival rate and 50.0%-56.7% regeneration rate of cryopreserved shoot tips. Being tested by RT-PCR, half of the regenerated shoots were negative. The CymMV eradication frequency was 50% by droplet vitrification protocol, which laid a technical and theoretical foundation for CymMV eradication of orchids.
