What is Environmental parameters influencing phenolics production by batch cultures of Nicotiana tabacum about?
## Abstract The influence of temperature, illumination, hormonal levels (2,4‐D and kinetin), carbon to nitrogen ratios, antibiotics, and precursor feeding on phenolics production by __Nicotiana tabacum__ (tobacco) was studied. This plant cell system was chosen as a model system to learn more about secondary product formation in plant cell tissue cultures. This is the first study to manipulate all of these environmental parameters with a single plant cell system. The most striking results were with 2,4‐D manipulation. The removal of 2,4‐D resulted in significant phenolics production during the stationary phase, while normal levels strongly suppressed phenolics production during the stationary phase. The addition of phenylalanine stimulated phenolics production per gram of cells but strongly inhibited growth.
