title: Effect of chemical factors on production of isoflavonoids in Pueraria tuberosa (Roxb.ex.Willd.) DC suspension culture.
abstract: Suspension cultures of Pueraria tuberosa, a woody legume, have been established and using different concentrations of growth regulators, sucrose, ammonium and nitrate nitrogen, attempts have been made to improve their isoflavonoid content. The cell cultures grew well on all the treatments. Up to approximately 8 folds increased isoflavonoids content was recorded in the cultures grown in MS medium modified with nitrogen and supplemented with 1 mg 1(-1) of kinetin.
