A method for selecting plants and plant tissue cultures that contain elevated levels of secondary metabolites is disclosed. The method uses clonal organogenic tissue culture lines, the cultures being derived from cells of a member of the Lamiaceae family. Cultured tissue propagules are placed in contact with mucoid, non-pathogenic bacterial cells and cultured for a period of time. Those clonal lines exhibiting tolerance to the bacterial cells have elevated levels of secondary metabolites. Cultured tissue from such lines can be regenerated into plants, which are used to more efficiently produce essential oils for food and medicinal purposes.
L'invention concerne un procédé de sélection de plantes et de cultures de tissus végétaux qui contiennent des taux élevés de métabolites secondaires. Ledit procédé consiste à utiliser des lignées de cultures de tissus organogènes, lesdites cultures étant dérivées de cellules d'un membre de la famille des Lamiaceae. Des propagules de tissus de culture sont mis en contact avec des cellules bactériennes mucoïdes non pathogènes et mis en culture pendant un certain temps. Ces lignées clonales présentant une tolérance aux cellules bactériennes ayant des taux élevés de métabolites secondaires. Le tissu de culture provenant de ces lignées peut être régénéré dans des plantes, qui sont utilisées pour la production plus efficace d'huiles essentielles à des fins alimentaires ou médicinales.
