Objective: Through a comparison between F-1 and its' parents on the growth, chemical components and physiology, this study aims to find the possibility of selecting new dendrobium hybrids with high yield and good quality. Method: To determinate the growth, chemical components, photosynthesis, hormones and isoenzyme in the plants. Result: Photosynthetic area, content of chlorophyll, net photosynthesis and yield of F-1 generation are higher than those of the parents; chla/b rate is lower; growth is almost the same as in Dendrobium moniliforme; content of chemical components are the same as in D. huoshanense. F-1 is approaching of advantages of parents. Conclusion: Physiological characters, yield and quality of F-1 are greatly improved by hybridization.
