TL;DR: There are a variety of problems to be solved before this technology can be adopted on a wide scale for the production of useful plant secondary metabolites and several examples of medicinal and aromatic plant cultures were summarized for the scale up cultivation in bioreactors.

TL;DR: Findings point at S. sinaloensis as a potential drought adaptive species, which could be used in breeding strategies to obtain sages with high quality PSMs, saving irrigation water.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the high expression of these genes in the trans-amplifying derivatives of the stem cells maintains a pluripotent condition leading to totipotency and, consequently, somatic embryogenesis.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of water stress on the dynamics of plant biomass and secondary metabolites production, and the morphological and physiological mechanisms involved in plant responses was analyzed in the context of H. petiolare.

TL;DR: It is, therefore, important to employ epigenetic markers to understand all desirable or undesirable physiological responses that occur during tissue culture in the production of quality propagules.
