Coleus spp.: Micropropagation and In Vitro Production of Secondary Metabolites
Coleus spp. have long been prized for their colorful foliage, which may combine shades of green, yellow, pink, red and maroon. They are plants for all locations. Besides their ornamental nature, Coleus spp. are also valued in folk medicine. C. blumei Benth., a natural hybrid of several Coleus spp. is an ornamental plant growing all over the world in an enormous number of different cultivars tha...
متن کاملSecondary Metabolites
Secondary metabolites are organic molecules that are not involved in the normal growth and development of an organism. While primary metabolites have a key role in survive of the species, playing an active function in the photosynthesis and respiration, absence of secondary metabolites does not result in immediate death, but rather in long-term impairment of the organism’s survivability, often ...
متن کاملBioengineering of Important Secondary Metabolites and Metabolic Pathways in Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.)
Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) has a long and respected history of medicinal uses in Middle East and Persian medicine. The hypocholesterolaemic and hypoglycaemic effects of fenugreek were attributed to its major steroidal sapogenin, diosgenin and its major alkaloid, trigonelline. The knowledge of diosgenin and trigonelline biosynthesis is derived from studies of cholesterol and nicoti...
متن کاملUsing elicitors for enhanced production of secondary metabolites in plant cell and organ suspension cultures
In biotechnology has been concentrated to review alternative routes for the production of natural compounds. Plant cell culture systems are viable alternatives for the production of secondary metabolites that are of commercial importance in food and pharmaceutical industries. However, relatively very few cultures synthesize these compounds over extended periods in amounts comparable to those fo...
