EFFECTS OF PRASEODYMIUM ON FLAVONOIDS PRODUCTION AND ITS BIOCHEMICAL MECHANISM OF SCUTELLARIA VISCIDULA HAIRY ROOTS IN VITRO
Abstract
In the present study the effect of rare earth element Praseodymium (Pr) on flavonoids production and its biosynthesis key enzymes including Peroxidase (POD; EC 1.11.1.7), Polyphenol oxidase (PPO; EC 1.10.3.1) and Phenylanlanine ammonialyase (PAL; EC 4.3.1.5) in hairy roots of Scutellaria viscidula was investigated. After 7 days of suspension culture, activity of POD, PPO and PAL and total flavonoid production showed the same response tendency, which was ascending first and then descending with the Pr3+ elicitor increasing, and the Pr(NO3)3 concentration reaching the knee point was 15
