In this study, limitations in TIA biosynthesis from C. roseus hairy root cultures were assessed through gene expression profiling and precursor feeding. The transcript levels of key TIA pathway genes (G10h, Tdc, Str, and Sgd)and metabolite levels associated with the TIA pathway (tryptamine, loganin, secologanin, strictosidine, ajmalicine, serpentine, and tabersonine)were monitored using quantitative RT-PCR and HPLC, respectively. In cultures elicited with methyl jasmonate (250 M MeJA on day 21), G10h, Tdc, Str, and Sgd expression increased by 9.1, 3.1, 6.7, and 8.3-fold, respectively, after 24 h. Up-regulation of gene expression was followed by a 160, 440, and 420 UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iAgGeCnQo8MtN5lMJWqxK6JZ2KhAxP41/view?usp=drivesdk ER -
