Summary

Tissue cultures of the PapaveraceeMacleaya microcarpa retained the capability of synthesizing alkaloids (protopine, allocryptopine, sanguinarine) for 3 years after initiation. The alkaloids are accumulated in single, yellow-coloured cells scattered in the tissue. The colour of these cells is continuously produced by a yellow pigment without alkaloidal properties. The orange alkaloid sanguinarine occurs only irregularly. Nevertheless, selection of deep and weak coloured pieces of tissue cultures led to lines with a high and a low content of alkaloids, respectively.
