| Abstract | Linum usitatissimum: L. is well-known for production of pharmacologically important secondary metabolites. Due to their tremendous beneficial effects on human health, these compounds are receiving greater attention throughout the World, especially in the treatment of various types of cancers. In present study, we have developed an efficient protocol for production of lignans like secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG) and lariciresinol diglucoside (LDG) and neo-lignans like dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol glucoside (DCG) and guaiacylglycerol-β-coniferyl alcohol ether glucoside (GGCG) by exploiting in vitro callus cultures of Flax. These cultures were established from stem and leaf explants, inoculated on Murashige and Skoog (MS) media supplemented with various concentrations of α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), thidiazuron (TDZ) and 6-benzyl adenine (BA). Results revealed that the leaf-derived calli (1.0 mg/l NAA) accumulated highest levels of biomass (DW; 15.7 g/l) and antioxidant activity, while highest production of total phenolics (111.09 mg/l) and flavonoids (45.02 mg/l) were observed in stem-derived calli (1.0 mg/l NAA). The high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis revealed that the stem-derived calli (1.0 mg/l NAA) accumulated optimum concentrations of SDG (2.7 ± 0.021 mg/g DW), LDG (9.8 ± 0.062 mg/g DW) and DCG (13.8 ± 0.076 mg/g DW), while leaf-derived calli (1.0 mg/l NAA) showed optimum accumulation of GGCG (3.8 ± 0.022 mg/g DW) as compared to all other treatments. These results provided definite evidence that the NAA differentially influence the production of lignans and neo-lignans in callus culture of Flax. This study opens new dimensions to devise strategies to enhance the production of these valuable metabolites. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
