Abstract

Secondary metabolites of plants widely used in the medicinal and cosmetic industries, can be produced by tissue culture. In vitro production of these secondary metabolites is affected by various factors such as the type and concentration of phyto regulators. In this study, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2-methoxy-3,6-dichlorobenzoic acid (Dicamba) effect on phenolic compounds synthesis as well as Phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), tyrosine ammonia lyase (TAL), Polyphenoloxidase (PPO), peroxidase (POD), Catalase (CAT) and Ascorbate Peroxidase (APX) activities from root explants have been studied. The root explants come from the seeds in vitro germination of maize irradiated (200 and 300 grays) or not irradiated (control) with gamma radiation. The results obtained showed that the auxin type had a very highly significant effect (p
