Abstract

Vitamin B6 is synthesized by green Cytisus scoparius callus and green Phellodendron amurense callus cultured on Linsmaier and Skoog Agar-medium with 10-5M of α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 10-6M of 6-benzyladenine (BA). Even when thiamine and inositol were omitted from this medium, the growth and vitamin B6 content of Cytisus scoparius callus did not change. Vitamin B6 contents of clones of the calluses varied and were unstable during long-term subculture. Clonal selection was repeated to obtain stable strains with high vitamin B6 content, and the vitamin B6 content of one strain of green Cytisus scoparius callus became 4-times higher than that of the green leaves.
