(A) Lycium humile in its natural habitat in the Andes, South America (picture kindly provided by Virginia Palchetti). (B) An established hairy root culture of L. humile. (C) Results of the measurement of the total flavonoid content of a hairy root line after 7 days of culture in saline media. Values are expressed in catechin equivalents (CE) per mg fresh weight (FW) (mean ± SD, n=3). Values sharing the same letters do not differ significantly from each other according to Tukey's pairwise post-hoc test (p < 0.05).
