Localization of Secondary Metabolites in Relict Gymnosperms of the Genus In Vivo and in Cell Cultures In Vitro, and the Biological Activity of Their Extracts.

In order to scientifically search for new sources of secondary metabolites with valuable qualities for phytopharmacognosy, tasks requiring a step-by-step solution were set. The primary task is the development of technologies for obtaining in vitro highly productive biomass of cells of relict gymnosperms of the genus , capable of accumulating various classes of secondary metabolites. The study of the accumulation and localization of secondary metabolites allowed us to evaluate the biological activity and cytotoxicity of in vitro cultures.
