1 Abstract Elicitation method is one way to increase the production of secondary metabolites in in vitro of plant cultures and this work deals with this problem. Its aim was to find the positive effect of 2-hydroxy-4-(imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine-2-carboxamide)benzoic acid from the group of pyrazine derivates on the production of isoflavonoids in in vitro cultures of Genista tinctoria L. Isoflavonoids play an important role in therapy of climacteric problems or they are promising substances of therapy various cancer types due to their affinity to estrogens β-receptors. This plant or rather its in vitro cultures are a potencial sources of isoflavonoids. Suspension and callus cultures of Genista tinctoria L. were used for elicitation. They were cultivated on Schenk & Hildebrant medium with the addition of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) as growth regulator at a concentration of 1 ml/l. The elicitor solution was added to the cultures at three concentrations: 3.3642 × 10-3 mol/l; 3.3642 × 10-4 mol/l; 3.3642 × 10-5 mol/l. The samples were taken at intervals of 6, 24, 48, 72 and 168 hours and then they were analyzed by HPLC method. At the same time intervals the samples of medium, where isoflavonoids were released, were analyzed. The biggest production of isoflavonoid was reached in suspension culture. The...
