The growth, the alkaloid production, as well as the scopolamine/hyoscyamine ratio of two
clones of belladonna hairy roots were studied. The effects of nitrate and ammonium …

Hairy root cultures of Atropabelladonna were established by transformation with
Agrobacterium rhizogenes 15834. Five clones of them were employed to study the …

Growth of Atropa belladonna hairy roots in shake flasks followed first-order kinetics. The
specific growth rate was 0.28 d− 1, corresponding to a doubling time of 60 h. In airlift …

Catharanthus roseus hairy root cultures, genetically transformed with Agrobacterium
rhizogenes, produce a wide variety of indole alkaloids. The effect of sucrose, phosphate …

Plants are a potential source of a large number of valuable secondary metabolites. In vitro
cultures are being considered as an alternative to agricultural processes for studying …

Atropa belladonna leaf disks were infected by a wild strain Agrobacterium rhizogenes 15834
harboring the Ri-TL-DNA and by a disarmed Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain harboring a …

Hairy roots were induced by inoculation of stems of sterile plants of Atropa belladonna with
Agrobacterium rhizogenes. The axenic culture of the hairy roots isolated from the stems …

The growth and tropane content in transformed root cultures of Atropa belladonna (strain
M8) grown in 300 ml flasks were studied. After one month in culture, the biomass of the …

Hairy roots were induced by inoculating leaf disks and stem segments of Duboisia
leichhardtii F. Muell with Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains 15834 and A4. Forty-five hairy …

Hairy root culture of Hyoscyamus albus was established by transformation with
Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain A4. The growth and production of five tropane alkaloids …
