Abstract:
1. A method of producing secondary metabolites using Taxus genus plant cell culture, by culturing the plant cells in a culture medium for plant cell culture to which a saccharide mixture is added as the sole carbon source, to increase the productivity of secondary metabolites, wherein the secondary metabolite is paclitaxel, wherein the cell culture is conducted by adding the saccharide mixture at a cell growth phase and the secondary metabolite production phase, wherein the contents of the saccharide mixture is 2 to 12% (w/v), and wherein the saccharide mixture contains glucose and fructose in the mixture ratio by weight of 1:5 to 5:1 or sucrose and fructose in the mixture ratio by weight of 1:4 to 4:1.
