- Katedra farmakognozie Farmaceutické fakulty Univerzity Karlovy, Hradec Králové
The effect of two abiotic elicitors - two newly synthetized compounds (substituted anilides ofpyrazine-2-carboxylic acids) - on the formation of flavonoids in the callus culture of Ononis arvensisL.was tested.The compounds markedly influenced the production of flavonoids in an in vitro culture. Particularly after elicitation with a solution of compound No.1 (4-hydroxyanilide 6-chloro-5-terc.butylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid)in a concentration of 3.32.10-7 mol.l-1 and within 48 hours of elicitation an increase in flavonoid formation by 976 % versus the control took place.
