Differences in secondary metabolites from leaf extracts of Mikania glomerata Sprengel obtained by micropropagation and cuttings

Diferenças nos metabólitos secundários acumulados nos extratos das folhas de Mikania glomerata Sprengel obtidos por micropropagação e estaquia

GC analysis of the dichloromethane extracts obtained from cultivated specimens of Mikania glomerata Sprengel possibilited to verify that cuttings technique led to production of kaurenoic acid and coumarin while the same results have not been observed by propagation process using in vitro techniques.
