    Notes: The relation between root differentiation and accumulation of biocidal thiophenes was studied in stem calli of two Tagetes species. Disorganized tissues of T. erecta were low in thiophene production. A sharp rise in thiophene content coincided with the emergence of roots on the calli. Root regeneration and the amount of thiophenes produced were found to be quantitatively related. Callus tissues of T. minuta did not differentiate into organs. Nevertheless, they accumulated thiophenes throughout the incubation period. Light at 12 W m- stimulated thiophene production in T. erecta without having an apparent effect on root regeneration. In T. minuta even low irradiance levels (2 W m∼2) strongly inhibited thiophene accumulation. Under favorable conditions thiophene concentrations in calli of both species were comparable to or somewhat lower than the levels in roots on the plants and in excised, cultured roots of T. erecta. We conclude that in calli of T. erecta thiophene accumulation is coupled to root regeneration whereas a different control mechanism allowing for accumulation in disorganized tissues is operative in T. minuta.

    Notes: Summary The effect of the size of Tagetes patula (marigolds) cell aggregates on growth and thiophene production in MS-medium was studied. A heterogeneous aggregate suspension was aseptically divided into 7 fractions, each with a defined aggregate diameter range, with subsequent inoculation of the fractions into MS growth medium. Growth occurred in all aggregate fractions and thiophene production increased with increasing aggregate diameter starting at about 3 mm, an effect possibly due to an increasing lack of oxygen in the aggregate centre. Calculations of oxygen concentration profiles in the aggregates showed namely, that the critical aggregate diameter where the oxygen concentration in the aggregate centre becomes very low, is about 3 mm. Aggregates with a diameter exceeding 1.2 cm showed a decreased thiophene production, however, these aggregates were hollow. The thiophenes produced mainly consisted of 5-(4-hydroxy-1-butenyl)1-2,2′-bithienyl, which was excreted into the medium.

    Notes: Abstract Roots of marigold (Tagetes patula L.) accumulate thiophenes, heterocyclic sulfurous compounds with strong biocidal activity. In detached roots cultured in vitro, the thiophene content was 5 μmol·(g fresh weight)-1 which is 25-times higher than in roots attached to the plant. In roots derived from tissues transformed by Agrobacterium tumefaciens and A. rhizogenes, the morphology and thiophene content varied with the bacterial strain used. Transformation stimulated the elongation of the root tips and the formation of lateral roots but lowered the thiophene level to 20–50% relative to the concentration in untransformed detached roots. A negative correlation was found between the number of laterals in a root system and the thiophene content. Extensive branching and a decrease in thiophene accumulation was evoked in untransformed roots by indole-3-acetic acid (1–10 μmol·l-1) added to the medium. Within the roots, the highest thiophene concentrations were found in the tips. The results indicate that auxin directly or indirectly plays a role in the regulation of the thiophene level in root tips.
