Rhodiola quadrifida is a rare mountain medicinal plant whose root
extracts are used in traditional Chinese medicine as a hemostatic, antitussive,
and tonic in the treatment of gynecological diseases. The aim of the study was
to obtain
R. quadrifida cultures at different degrees of differentiation
in vitro
and compare their growth characteristics and the content of salidroside and rosavin. Hairy roots were obtained by incubating cotyledons and hypocotyls in a suspension of
Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain A4. The presence of the rolB and
rolC genes was proven by polymerase chain reaction. The obtained roots were
cultivated in Murashige-Skoog medium (MS). Calluses were obtained from the
hairy roots in MS medium with the addition of hormones: 3 mg/L 2,4 D and
0.5 mg/L BAP. The presence of the main secondary metabolites of
R. quadrifida,
salidroside and rosavin, in calluses and salidroside in hairy roots by HPLC/MS
was confirmed. The content of salidroside in callus culture was significantly
higher than in hairy roots, 0.158 and 0.047%, respectively. The content of rosavin
in callus culture was 0.07%. The content of rosavin and salidroside in callus culture
was close to the level of these substances in the rhizomes of
R. quadrifida plants
growing
in vivo, making this culture promising for its possible biotechnological use.
