Abstract

Mistletoe is the common name for various parasitic plants belonging to the families Santalaceae, Loranthaceae and Misodendraceae. Due to their fascinating biology, curious appearance and to the lore and legend that surrounds them the mistletoes has a great potential as new ornamental plants.
Until recently propagation of mistletoes has been either too slow or too costly to make it economically feasible to produce them as potted plants on a large scale.
At the Botanic Garden, University of Copenhagen we have however developed and patented a method for mass production of plants with mistletoe.
This method includes a dual propagation system of seeding the mistletoe while propagating the host vegetatively.
The work presented has mainly concerned the genus Viscum and in particular the South African mistletoe Viscum crassulae. The aspects of the convention on biological diversity (CBD) and intellectual property rights are discussed.
