Paclitaxel (Taxol®) is a potent anticancer agent, but the widespread pharmaceutical use of paclitaxel hampered by its limited availability due to low accumulation levels in native yew (Taxus spp.) plants. Currently, hairy root culture an emerging biotechnological tool that presents several advantages such as reduced costs and higher specialized metabolite production, therefore, application prod...

Abstract Taxol is an anticancer drug that widely used in cancer treatment worldwide. Since the source of a plant, increase its production one concerns researchers. One way to use stimulants for secondary metabolite production. Therefore, this study, methyl jasmonate was as bioelicitor, and effect on evaluated.
