Journal ArticleDOI
Bioproduction of diosgenin in callus cultures of Trigonella foenum-graecum L.
TL;DR: The production of the steroidal sapogenin, diosgenin, by callus cultures of Trigonella foenum-graecum L. (fenugreek) is described and its identity was confirmed by mass spectrometry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution and changes of diosgenin during development of Trigonella foenum-graecum plants. Modulation by benzylaminopurine
TL;DR: The distribution and evolution of diosgenin levels in the different organs of Trigonella foenum-graecum were investigated and it was revealed that the maximum levels of this secondary compound are reached in the young leaves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of ethylene on diosgenin accumulation in callus cultures of Trigonella foenum-graecum L
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of different concentrations of ethephon (an ethylene-releasing compound) on the level of the steroidal sapogenin, diosgenin, in callus cultures of Trigonella foenum-graecum were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of the diosgenin expression in Trigonella foenum-graecum plants by different plant growth regulators
TL;DR: Treatment with 50 ppm ethephon increased the diosgenin levels observed in the leaves of 15- and 30-day-old plants, growth of the whole plant being substantially reduced at 30 days in comparison with the growth observed in control plants.
