Induction of phenylpropanoid compounds by UV-B irradiation in roots of seedlings and cell cultures from dill (Anethum graveolens L.)

Plant Cell Reports volume 1, pages 183–185 (1982)Cite this article

Abstract

In both cell cultures and seedling roots from dill (Anethum graveolens L.) UV irradiation selectively induced a quercetin arabinoside and two other phenylpropanoid compounds with caffeic acid as the aglycone. Only wavelengths below 360 nm were effective in this induction. Maximal effectiveness was observed below 320 nm.
