Abstract

The effect of the biochemical status of plants on the viability of explants and obtaining a productive culture of medicinal plants in vitro, taking into account the use of various sterilizing agents and photoperiod, was studied. It was found that the applied lighting mode had a significant effect on the intensity of callus tissue formation, its consistency and color. As a rule, callus tissue was formed in those places where the localization of phenolic compounds was insignificant. When calluses are initiated on explants characterized by a high content of polyphenols, they are released into the nutrient medium, which further leads to inhibition of growth processes. The resulting callus cultures were characterized by a high content of polyphenols, which were localized in cell walls and vacuoles.
