Galloylglucoses and riccionidin A in Rhus javanica adventitious root cultures.
Adventitious root cultures of Rhus javanica L. produced large amounts of galloylglucoses (gallotannins) and an anthocyanidin, riccionidin A, formerly found only in liverworts. Production of both galloylglucoses and riccionidin A in the adventitious root culture system was suppressed by light. The Rhus root culture showed the highest productivity for those secondary metabolites in a modified Linsmaier-Skoog (LS) liquid medium containing 30 mM NH4+ and 30 mM NO3- as nitrogen sources in the presence of 10(-6) M 3-indoleacetic acid (IAA).
