Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don - plant regeneration and alkaloids content
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 We describe here a regeneration of plantlets of Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don from shoot tips and axillary buds. Shoot tips were excised from 7-day-old seedlings and were incubated in solid Nitsch and Nitsch (NN) medium supplemented with kinetin ...

Stereochemical insights into sarpagan and akuammiline alkaloid biosynthesis. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Sarpagan and akuammiline monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) are a class of bioactive plant‐derived compounds with significant pharmaceutical potential. These alkaloids are formed through oxidative cyclization of geissoschizine, catalyzed by homologous cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP) known as sarpagan bridge enzymes (SBEs) and rhazimal ...
