Abstract

Callus and root organ cultures ofCoreopsis tinctoria andC. lanceolata have been established in liquid nutrition medium. Their capacity to accumulate unusual phenylpropanoids was compared with that of seedlings and whole plants. Corresponding callus cultures accumulated the phenylpropanoids only in traces. In contrast to the unorganized callus cultures the root organ cultures accumulated the same pattern of phenylpropanoids as their parent plants. A root organ culture ofC. tinctoria accumulated the compounds up to the same amounts as the root of the whole plant.
