Abstract
Extracellular peroxidases were produced in plant cell suspension cultures in proportion to cell dry weight during exponential growth phase. This correlation was established for cell suspension cultures ofArtemesia annua, Coleus blumei, Pisum sativum andSalvia officinalis. The correlation was maintained when growth kinetics were altered by variations in initial sucrose concentrations in cell cultures ofArtemesia annua. This study indicated that extracellular perioxidases were readily measured indicators of growth in plant cell cultures.
