Production of volatile compounds in suspension cell cultures of Coriandrum sativum L. and Levisticum officinales

Cell cultures of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) and lovage (Levisticum officinales) were investigated for the production of compounds useful in medicine and/or flavor. The production of lovage volatile compounds was only achieved in association with the organization of embryoids in the culture. H...

Summary:Cell cultures of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) and lovage (Levisticum officinales) were investigated for the production of compounds useful in medicine and/or flavor. The production of lovage volatile compounds was only achieved in association with the organization of embryoids in the culture. However, 21 and 23 volatile components were identified in the culture media of coriander Cs0 and Cs1, respectively, 12 days after inoculation. Coriander and lovage cells were mixed to stimulate the production of secondary metabolites. Further investigation of cell growth and the metabolite production in mixed cultures is needed
