Abstract: Munjistin and purpurin were identified as the major components of anthraquinone pigments produced by callus cultures of R. cordifolia. Anthraquinone content in calluses was 0.62-1.22% (by dry wt.) depending on the source of explants. Selection of coloured aggregates yielded a cell line with twofold increase in anthraquinone production.
