Abstract

This study researched the effect of temperature on growth and ginsenosides accumulation in adventitious root cultures of Panax ginseng. Results showed that the ginseng adventitious roots growth and differentiation ability could be affected faced with different incubation temperatures (15, 20, 25, and 30°C for 35days). Besides, the research also demonstrated that low-temperature stimulation could promote the accumulation of ginsenosides and the content of total ginsenosides increased by 2.53 times at 10°C-7d (10°C for 7days and then transferred to 25°C for 28days) compared with that at 25°C. Moreover, the transcriptional levels of functional genes and PgWRKYs were analyzed by this study and the correlation analysis showed that GPS, SS, CYP716A47, CYP716A53v2, UGT74AE2, UGT94Q2, PgWRKY1, PgWRKY3, and PgWRKY8 were significantly correlated with total ginsenosides content. Furthermore, HPLC-ESI-MSn analyzed that Malonyl-Rb1 only existed in 10°C-7d group. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: The survey showed that after a certain time of stimulating P. ginseng adventitious roots at low temperature, the accumulation of ginsenosides could be enhanced as their expression of related genes were regulated. It provides a theoretical foundation for the mass production of ginsenosides by controlling the temperature conditions of P. ginseng adventitious roots.
