Putrescine Promotes Betulin Accumulation in Suspension Cell Cultures of <i>Betula platyphylla</i> by Regulating NO and NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup> Production

Putrescine (Put) can enhance secondary metabolite production, but its intrinsic regulatory mechanism remains unclear. In this study, Put treatment promoted betulin production and gene expression of lupeol synthase (<i>LUS</i>), one of betulin synthetic enzymes. The maximum betulin conten...
