The effects of methyl jasmonate and salicylic acid on biomass and bioactive compound accumulation in protocorm-like bodies of Dendrobium candidum are investigated.
The methyl jasmonate of 75 μM is suitable for production of bioactive compounds.
Methyl jasmonate should treat protocorm-like bodies after 30 days of bioreactor culture.
The suitable treatment duration of methyl jasmonate differs among types of bioactive compounds.
Protocorm-like bodies treated with the methyl jasmonate have higher antioxidant activity.
