Effects of methyl jasmonate elicitation on growth and lutein content in microshoot cultures of Ruta angustifolia (L.) Pers
Lutein is one of the macular pigments which protects the underlying photoreceptor cell layer of the retina from light-induced oxidative damage. The carotenoid pigment has been detected in the intact plant of Ruta angustifolia. In this study the effects of methyl jasmonate (MeJa) elicitation on growt...
