New ways for medicinal plant improvement and for the production of plant drugs have opened up as the result of advances in plant biotechnology and increasing interest in plant-derived pharmaceuticals. This article highlights plant improvement of Duboisia and production of tropane alkaloids using modern techniques such as plant tissue and cell culture, root culture, radioimmunoassay in tropane alkaloid analysis, and molecular biology in the studies of tropane biosynthesis.
随着植物生物技术的进步以及对植物源药物兴趣的增加，药用植物改良和植物药物生产的新途径已经出现。本文重点介绍了利用现代技术对澳洲茄进行植物改良以及生产托烷生物碱，这些技术包括植物组织和细胞培养、根培养、托烷生物碱分析中的放射免疫测定以及托烷生物合成研究中的分子生物学。
