An auxin-independent adventitious root culture of Hyoscyamus niger was established, and
the roots were successfully cryopreserved with a high regeneration rate of 93.3 percnt; by …

For 35 years, hairy roots have been explored as a promising platform for the production of a
variety of compounds in different plant systems. Genetic/biochemical stability, the large …

Atropa baetica hairy roots, over-expressing cDNA from Hyoscyamus niger encoding the
gene for hyoscyamine 6β-hydroxylase (H6H), were produced by Agrobacterium rhizogenes …

Plant cell suspension cultures and hairy roots are potential sources of secondary
metabolites and recombinant proteins. In contrast to traditionally grown “whole wild plants” …

Tropane alkaloids (TA) including hyoscyamine, anisodamine, scopolamine and anisodine,
are used medicinally as anticholinergic agents with increasing market demand, so it is very …

Agrobacterium rhizogenes is the etiological agent for hairy-root disease (also known as root-
mat disease). This bacterium induces the neoplastic growth of plant cells that differentiate to …

A wide range of external stress stimuli triggers a plant cell to undergo a complex network of
reactions that ultimately lead to the synthesis and accumulation of secondary metabolites …

Hairy root cultures (HRCs) are characterized by fast and unlimited root growth, and they
have greater genetic stability than other cultivation methods. HRCs are known to accumulate …

Our current understanding of plant functional genomics derives primarily from
measurements of gene, protein and/or metabolite levels averaged over the whole plant or …

Eucalyptus are of tremendous economic importance being the most planted hardwoods
worldwide for pulp and paper, timber and bioenergy. The recent release of the Eucalyptus …
