atropa belladonna/arginine

Atropa belladonna seedlings were used as experimental materials and cultivated by soil culture method. Different concentrations(0,0.05,0.1,0.2,0.5 mmol·L~(-1))of NO donor sodium nitroprusside(SNP) were sprayed on the leaves. The effects of different concentrations of SNP and different treatment

In order to study the mechanism of nitrogen metabolism and secondary metabolism in Atropa belladonna hairy roots treated with yeast extract, yeast extract（YE） was added to the culture medium. Then the changes of physiological and biochemical indexes of A. belladonna hairy roots after treatment with

The activities of enzymes related to the biosynthesis of N-methylputrescine, a precursor of the alkaloid hyoscyamine, have been measured in root cultures of Datura stramonium L. and Atropa belladonna L. transformed with Agrobacterium rhizogenes. Ornithine δ-Nmethyltransferase and δ-N-methylornithine

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) plays an important role in various biological processes; however, its role in plant secondary metabolism, especially in the biosynthesis of tropane alkaloids (TAs) such as pharmaceutical hyoscyamine, anisodamine and scopolamine, remains largely unknown. In this study,
