  • In this study to produce large-scale scopolamine we were examined in the tumor calli of Datura metel L. induced by Agrobacterium tumefaciens $Ery{101}$. The growth and scopolamine contents of tumor calli were higher under light condition than in dark. The optimum condition of growth and scopolamine production were fluence rate of 16 $\mu$mol $m^{-2}s^{-1}$, spectra of red light region and 16 hour light periods on 50 mL SH liquid medium in 4 weeks culture. To increase of the scopolamine contents in tumor calli, the optimum concentration of nitrogen source were 1.8 mM NH$_4$+ and 40 mM NO$_3$. The optimum elicitor concentration for production of scopolamine were 10 mg/L chitosan and 15 mg/L yeast extract. The effect of precursors were good at the concentration of 0.2 mM tropine and 0.3 mM tropic acid, respectively. In order to increase of growth and scopolamine contents. we induced mutant from Datura metel L. tumor callus. Mutants of tumor calli were obtained by 3 Krad, 4 Krad and 6 Krad of ${60}^Cor-ray$. Among them, 3 Krad tumor callus was excellent on the growth and teratoma induction. The 4 Krad tumor callus was negligible for both growth and teratoma induction. But the 6 Krad tumor callus was the best in growth and teratoma induction. The formation of the mutant calli can be enhanced through hormonal combination of 1 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 0.5 mg/L benzyladenine. We carry out selection mutant tumor calli for high content tropane alkaloid and suspension cultures for scopolamine production.

  • The autofluorescent cells in the penetration area of powdery mildewed leaves of barley had been reported. The present experiments were performed in order to obtain the fluorescence-inducing extract fraction from the conidia. The preparations were made by extractions and residue which were extracted from the conidia of Erysiphe graminis hordei race I with water, ethanol, and ethyl ether. Bioassaying was carried out on the culled-leaf surface of incompatible Turkey 290 and compatible Kobingataki varieties by placing the drops of extract solutions. Fluorescence-elicitor activity was shown only in tile ethanol-extract fraction to both varieties. However, fluorescence-eliciting rate was more rapid on the leaves of incompatible variety Turkey 290 than on tile those of compatible variety Kobingataki; Turkey 290 less than 8 hours, Kobingataki less than 16 hours.

  • Studies were made to elucidate the cell growth and the production of camptothecin and its derivatives in cell cultures of Camptotheca acuminata. High resolution HPLC chromatograms to analyze camptothecin and 10-hydroxycamptothecin in lactone and carboxylate forms were obtained with a fluorescence detector. Calli inductions were optimized with the young stem of explant on Schenk and Hildebrandt (SH) medium supplemented with 5 mg/l $\alpha$-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), 0.2 mg/l 6-benzylamino purine (BAP), 2.0% sucrose, and 0.5% agar. The hybrid medium, a mixture of SH and Murashige and Skoog (MS) salts, was developed for homogeneous suspension cultures without large cell aggregates. The optimum phytohormone concentrations for successful suspension cultures were 1.0mg/l of 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/l of kinetin. The highest growth in suspension cultures was observed when 49.7% (w/w) of the cells was composed of small aggregates which were below 0.1 mm in diameter. Time course changes of cell growth and camptothecin production showed that camptothecin accumulation was started at the end of the growth phase and the maximum content was obtained 10 days after inoculation. Yeast extract elicitor increased camptothecin accumulation 4 times. Methyl jasmonate and jasmonic acid also increased camptothecin production 6 and 11 times, respectively.

  • Production of decursinol angelate, a new potential anticancer agent, in Angelica gigas Nakai root culture was increased by treatment of $H_2O_2$, and various polysaccharides such as $CM-\;{\beta}\;-cyclodextrin$, glucan, $CM-\;{\beta}\;-chitin$, yeast extract and pectin. One mmole $H_2O_2$ enhanced the production of decursinol angelate. However, higher concentrations of $H_2O_2$ were founded to be toxic for root growth whereas specific productivity of decursinol angelate was increased at high concentrations of $H_2O_2$. In the case of polysaccharide elicitors, $CM-\;{\beta}\;-chitin$ was the most effective for enhanced production of secondary metabolite in A. gigas Nakai root culture.
