Plants are potent biochemical factories. They have been components of phytomedicine since time immemorial. Plant products of commercial interest are secondary metabolites which can be derived from different parts of the plant like, bark, leaves, roots, flowers, seeds, fruits etc. This review focuses...
Finally, the consequences for the use of plant cultures for secondary metabolite production is discussed.Jutta Ludwig-MüllerInstitute of BotanyBiotechnology LettersLUDWIG-MULLER, J. 2015. Plants and endophytes: equal partners in secondary metabolite production? Biotechnology Letters, 1-10....

Plants are sessile organisms and, in order to defend themselves against exogenous (a)biotic constraints, they synthesize an array of secondary metabolites which have important physiological and ecological effects. Plant secondary metabolites can be classified into four major classes: terpenoids, phenolic ...
The production of secondary metabolites by plants growing in natural populations is conditioned by environmental factors. In the present study, we have investigated the relationships among soil properties, micronutrients in soils and plants, and cardenolide production from wild Digitalis obscura (Scrophulari...

In the growth condition(s) of plants, numerous secondary metabolites (SMs) are produced by them to serve variety of cellular functions essential for physiological processes, and recent increasing evidences have implicated stress and defense response signaling in their production. The type and concentrati...
Elicitation is one of the most effective methods to enhance the accumulation of secondary metabolites in plants38,39,40,41,42. Some biotic elicitors or physical stimulations are always used to improve the production of secondary metabolites in vitro 43. MJ and SA have been proven to be signalli...
The production of various secondary metabolites in plants including cardenolides (digoxin and digitoxin) are the results of interaction of plants with various environmental factors3, one of such being light4,8,9,10,11. These phytochemicals are significantly acknowledged for their dynamic pharmacological...
