Also, tubers of this plant are edible serving as carbohydrate source with medicinal values leading to severe population decline in the natural habitat. To provide a sustainable solution, an efficient in vitro propagation protocol along with phytochemical profiling was developed forC. media. Callus cultures were induced from seedling and wild leaf tissues using the most effective Murashige and Skoog's (MS) medium with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D; 2 mu M) and sucrose (3%). Somatic embryos were acquired on MS medium with 1 mu M 6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP) and 1 mu M 2,4-D. Conversion into plantlets was attained only from tissue culture-derived seedling leaf (TCDSL) explant. Further, in vitro tuberization was achieved from TCDSL callus with BAP and Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). AgNO(3)as an elicitor had a positive effect on both fresh and dry weights of callus. Successful acclimatization (58%) was attained after two months resulting in normal phenotype in pots. Further, metabolite profiles of ten different tissues from wild and in vitro plants were compared. Total 82 compounds comprising alkaloids, fatty acids, fatty acid ester, steroids, terpenes and hydrocarbons were identified. Overall, results suggested enhanced production of selected metabolites with in vitro propagation and AgNO3, alleviating the problem of unavailability of planting materials. Thus, the current study might offer potential ways for the conservation of such RED enlisted species asC. media. [GRAHICS]</p>

	This study investigated tissue-culture of an endangered medicinal herb, Ceropegia sahyadrica, along with tissue-specific variation in antioxidant activity and GC-MS based phytochemical profiling using wild and in vitro explants. In vitro leaf explants exhibited callus induction rate of 100% in Murashige and Skoog media containing 6-benzylaminopurine (4 mu M) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2 mu M) with 5% sucrose, whereas in vitro root explant achieved 66.7% with the combination of 2 mu M 6-benzylaminopurine and 1 mu M 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid in Murashige and Skoog medium. Microtuberization was most pronounced in in vitro root explants with a maximum response of 73.3% in 1 mu M indole-3-acetic acid, 2 mu M 6-benzylaminopurine and 5% sucrose. Scanning electron microscopy imaging revealed distinct cellular organization among tissues. Further, antioxidant potential assessed through 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging assays and estimated total phenolic content showed metabolic variation and commonality between in vitro and wild tissues. Additionally, phytochemical profiling by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry identified 201 compounds, including alkaloids, fatty acid methyl esters, flavonoids, phytosterols and other bioactive molecules with alterations in metabolite profiles between in vitro and wild tissues. These findings demonstrated that explant origin and culture condition might significantly influence metabolic responses for conservation and ensures a reliable source of bioactive compound.</p>
