Tissue cultures of A. vasica‚ initiated on Murashige and Skoog’s medium supplemented with various plant growth regulators‚ showed the presence of alkaloids‚ vasicine and vasicinone. Water extracts of shoot cultures contained high levels of these alkaloids. The vasicine and vasicinone contents in these extracts were 5.98% and 5.2% of dry weight and the water extracts of the selected elite parent plant contained 3–4% dry weight of vasicine.
