Stable growing callus cultures were recovered from stem segments of Taxus baccata. Callus developed from the peridermal cells. The content of taxol in callus tissues varied in the range of [0.0003-0.001% on dry weight basis] and was higher in fast growing calli compared to slow growing calli.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
