متن کاملEnhanced production of flavonoids by methyl jasmonate elicitation in cell suspension culture of Hypericum perforatum
Background: Flavonoids of Hypericum perforatum are important secondary metabolites which have been widely utilized in medicine for a range of purposes. The use of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) elicitation for the enhancement of flavonoid production in cell suspension culture of H. perforatum would be an efficient alternative method for the flavonoid production. Results: MeJA influenced the cells grow...
