| Abstract | Digitalis cardenolides can regulate heart rhythms and are effective agents in cancer chemotherapy, in particular, for treating prostate and breast cancer. In this study, an optimized and efficient plant tissue culture protocol was established using callus cultures of Digitalis lamarckii Ivanina, commonly known as dwarf foxglove. Lamina explants developed callus when cultured on Linsmaier and Skoog (LS) medium containing different concentrations of 6-benzyladenine (BA; 4.4, 13.3, or 22.2 μM) and α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA; 2.7, 5.4, or 10.8 μM). The highest incidence of callus formation (100%) was achieved on LS medium containing 13.3 μM BA and 10.8 μM NAA. Indirect shoot regeneration was achieved when the callus explants were cultured on LS medium supplemented with varying concentrations of BA (0.4, 1.1, or 2.2 μM) and/or gibberellic acid (0.7 or 1.4 μM) for 8 wk. Following the rooting of shoots on LS medium supplemented with either indole-3-acetic acid (ranging from 1.4 to 5.7 μM) or NAA (1.3 to 5.2 μM), lamina and petiole tissues of the 4-mo-old regenerated plants were compared for their cardenolide contents. Lamina extracts showed nearly three times higher cardenolide accumulation than petiole extracts. Of the cardenolides analyzed by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, neo-odorobioside G and glucogitoroside were abundant in lamina extracts (170.3 and 143.9 mg/kg dry weight, respectively). The regeneration protocol described in this study can be used for the in vitro production of certain cardenolides from D. lamarckii. |

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.
