The
objective of this work was the optimization of the
conditions of callus and cell suspension culture of
Elaeagnus angustifolia for the production of condensed
tannins. The effects of different conditions on the callus
growth and the production of condensed tannins were
researched. The leaf tissue part of E. angustifolia
was optimum explant of callus induction. The best callus
growth and the highest condensed tannins production was
obtained under the culture on MS basal medium containing
1.00 mg·L-1 2,4-D and 0.50 mg·L-1 BA.
The optimum time of subculture was 20 - 25 d. The results
showed the contents of condensed tannins decreased gradually
at the beginning of the callus differentiation.
Vigorous
and
friable
callus
was used for cell suspension culture.
Study on the
effect of medium and the
hormone combination
showed
that plenty of incompact and rapid growing suspension cells
were obtained from cultures grown in liquid medium
supplemented with 0.1 mg·L-1
BA + 0.1 mg·L-1
TDZ.
The study
provided an efficient way for E. angustifolia cell
suspension culture to produce secondary metabolite.
