For #D. alata$, the highest survival rate (up to 67%) was obtained after a 3 to 10-day pretreatment with 0.9M and 1M sucrose followed by 11 to 16 h. of silica gel-dehydration, rapid cooling in liquid nitrogen and, after rewarming, subculture for 35 d. on medium supplemented with growth regulators. For #D. bulbifera$, optimal survival (up to 65%) was achieved following pretreatment with sucrose concentrations higher than 0.75M, regardless of the pretreatment duration, and 14 to 16 h of dehydration. Recovery of frozen apices into plantlets was achieved after three months of culture on growth regulator-free medium, at a rate of 19% and 60% for #D. alata$ and #D. bulbifera$, respectively.
