Effects of various concentrations of elicitors for enhancement in valepotriates and valerenic acids production in adventitious root culture of Valeriana fauriei were investigated. Although the growth of adventitious roots was suppresed by addition of biotic or abiotic elicitors, the production of valepotriates and valerenic acids was enhanced. Addition of $100\;{\mu}M$ methyl jasmonate or 1 $g/{\ell}$ yeast extract to the root culture of V. fauriei resulted in the optimal production of valepotriates ($12.56\;{\pm}\;0.78\;mg/{\ell}$) and valerenic acids ($10.63\;{\pm}\;1.1\;mg/{\ell}$), respectively.

We established a practical method for rapid and large-scale production of Valeriana fauriei var. dasycarpa Hara roots by bioreactor culture and confirmed valerenic acids and valepotriates production. We also compared valerenic acids and valepotriates production patterns according to various media conditions. Among the media tested, B5 medium gave the maximum biomass production of 101 g fresh weight, which was a 5.03-fold multiplication rate obtained 4 weeks after inoculation of 20 g of fresh weight. The best production of total valerenic acids $(7.86\;mg/l)$ and valepotriates $(8.96\;mg/l)$ was B5 medium.
