abstract:
Different flax species have been exploited as starting
material to obtain in vitro cell cultures for the improvement of
lignans production. Stable cell lines were established from leaf
explants of Linum usitatissimum and Linum austriacum. The
results highlight the differences in phenol content between cell
suspensions deriving from two flax species belonging to different
clades
