Abstract
Two rosemary cell lines that produce pigments only in the light, and e ven in the dark, respectively, were screened after repeatedly subcultu ring pigmented cell aggregates. The main pigment produced in the dark was identified as shisonin, ((E)-p-coumaryl-beta-glucosyl)-5-O-(beta-g lucosyl) cyanidin, which is the main anthocyanin in the leaf of shiso (Perilla ocimoides).
