Biotransformation of geraniol by photoautotrophic, photomixotrophic and heterotrophic plant cell suspensions 

 -  PhytoChemistry, 28(4), p.1087-1090, 1989 .
<br/><br/> Cell suspension cultures of four plant species have been mamtamed under different carbon and energy supply regimes, i.e photoautotrophy, photomlxotrophy and erotrophy, and have been assayed for their capacity to biotransform geramol The reactions of mterconverslon of geramol mto nerol, or oxldatlon of alcohols mto their respective aldehydes, were mamly determmed by the plant species, whatever the modes of culture were. A rapid metabolism of monoterpemc alcohols to umdentlfied compounds was observed. In one cell suspension (Glyc~ne max), a high blotransformatlon actlvlty (40-60
