Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacognosy Student: Veronika Vargovčíková Supervisor: PharmDr. Marie Kašparová, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: Production of podophyllotoxin by plant tissue cultures of Juniperus virginiana Key words: Juniperus virginiana, callus cultures, suspension cultures, podophyllotoxin Elicitor and precursor adding method can be used to enhance the production of secondary metabolites in explantate cultures. This master's thesis is focused on the evaluation of the effects of biotic elicitor (salicylic acid) and phenylpropanoid metabolism precursor (cinnamic acid) on podophylotoxin production in Juniperus virginiana (var. 'Glauca' and 'Hetzii') suspension cell culture. Suspension cultures were cultivated on Schenk and Hildebrandt medium at 25řC and circadial period of 16 hours light and 8 hours dark. Medium contained 15 mg.l-1 ascorbic acid and growth regulators 3.0 mg.l-1 , α-naphthaleneacetic acid, 0.2 mg.l-1 kinetin. The effects of salicylic acid aqueous solution 0.01 mmol.l-1 , 0.10 mmol.l-1 , 1.00 mmol.l-1 , 10.0 mmol.l-1 and cinnamic acid 60% alcohol solution 0.10 mmol.l-1 , 1.00 mmol.l-1 , 10.0 mmol.l-1 , 100 mmol.l-1. were examined after 6, 24, 48 and 168 hours. Podophylotoxin content was evaluated using HPLC method. In 'Glauca'...
