Abstract

Scoparia dulcis L. (Scrophulariaceae) is a perennial herb distributed in tropical and subtropical regions, and has been used as a folk medicine. This plant was found to produce bicyclic and tetracyclic diterpenes such as scoparic acid A (SA) and scopadulcic acid B (SDB). Our previous studies indicated that SDB production was enhanced by administration of 10µM of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) in leaf organ culture system [1]. Furthermore, calcium signalling was suggested to be involved in the stimulation by MeJA [2].
