The importance of nitric oxide (NO) in regulating plant cell responses to environmental stresses is becoming evident. Here the possible role of NO in suspension cultures of Taxus cuspidata under shear stress was investigated in a Couette-type shearreactor. It was found that shear stress with 190
The generation of nitric oxide (NO) in Taxus cuspidata in immobilized support matrices and the potential role of NO as signal molecular in regulation of Taxol production were investigated. It was found that the immobilization induced a spatial and temporal-dependent NO burst in immobilized supported
