Abstract
Adventitious root cultures of Anthemis nobilis were established from roots of in vitro plantlets. GC-MS analysis of the n-hexane extract of the root cultures revealed that they accumulated geranyl isovalerate, a compound which is generally not detectable in parental plants, and negligible amounts of other constituents. Geranyl isovalerate was also detected in the aerial parts of in vitro plantlets but not in shoot cultures having no roots.
