I. Alami et A. Clerivet, Cyanidin 3-glucoside accumulation in plane tree (Platanus acerifolia) cell-suspension cultures, BIOTECH LET, 22(1), 2000, pp. 87-89
The accumulation of only one anthocyanin, cyanidin 3-glucoside, in cell-sus
pension cultures of plane tree (Platanus aceriflia) is reported for the fir
st time. During a time span of 6 years, no new anthocyanin was detected and
cyanidin 3-glucoside was maintained at about 35 mg l(-1) cell culture medi
um. This stable cell culture system could therefore be used for the biotech
nological production of cyanidin 3-glucoside.
