The effect of biotic elicitors (yeast extract, chitosan), signaling molecule (salicylic acid), and polyamines (putrescine and spermidine) was studied with respect to isoflavones accumulation in cell suspension cultures of Psoralea corylifolia L. Untreated cell suspension (control) accumulated 1.66% dry wt of daidzein and 0.165% dry wt of genistein. In precursor feeding experiment, phenylalanine at 0.5 mM concentration led to 1.3 fold higher production of daidzein (1.99% dry wt) and genistein (0.22% dry wt). In biotic elicitors, yeast extract (100 mg/L) was found to be the most efficient elicitor to induce higher production levels of daidzein (2.21% dry wt) and genistein (0.293% dry wt) in suspension cultures. Salicylic acid (signaling molecule) at 1 mM concentration stimulated the maximum accumulation of daidzein (3.4% dry wt) and genistein (0.41% dry wt) 2 days after elicitation. In case of polyamines, spermidine (100 mM) resulted in highest accumulation of daidzein (3.2% dry wt) and genistein (0.475% dry wt) after 7 days of addition, which was 2.4 fold of that in control. This is the first report on kinetics of isoflavone production in response to elicitation in cell suspension of P. corylifolia.
