[Industrial Application Field] The present invention provides a method for producing saffron stigma-like tissue by tissue culturing saffron flower tubes, and a method for collecting saffron useful components such as pigments from the saffron stigma-like tissue produced in this way. and a method for manufacturing the same. The useful saffron ingredients obtained here are used as medicines (sedatives, etc.), coloring agents, flavoring agents, bittering agents, etc., in pharmaceuticals, foods,
Used in fields such as cosmetics. [Conventional technology and problems] The saffron pistil is composed of the stigma, style, and ovary from the top.The stigma is deep red and contains saffron pigment, medicinal ingredients, and aromatic ingredients. Contains useful ingredients such as Conventionally, saffron stigmas containing such useful components have been collected from the pistils of saffron cultivated and blooming flowers. Normally, even if you grow a large saffron bulb weighing about 30g, it will only produce about 6 flowers, which means that it will only divide into 3 pieces and produce only about 18 pistil stigmas. If one were to collect 1 kg of pistil stigmas, the amount of saffron bulbs required would be approximately 500 kg. Therefore, the production of saffron pistil stigmas requires a large cultivation area. Moreover, natural cultivation takes time and is greatly affected by the weather, and saffron is a plant that strongly dislikes repeated cultivation, so it is difficult to cultivate and produce pistil stigmas efficiently. Saffron pistil stigmas are very expensive. Recently, a method has been proposed to produce saffron stigma-like tissue (gynoecium-like organ) by tissue culturing the female organ (gynoecium) of saffron in the presence of cytokinin (JP-A-62-2
No. 75617), in terms of the production amount of saffron female organs and the production amount of saffron pigment, a fully satisfactory technology has not yet been established, and there is a demand for the development of an effective production technology for obtaining saffron useful components. There is. [Object of the Invention] The present invention satisfies this need5, and provides a method for efficiently producing a stigma-like tissue containing a saffron useful component, and a method for efficiently producing a saffron useful component from the stigma-like tissue. The purpose is to provide a method for [Configuration and Effects of the Invention] The present invention has the following configuration. (11. A method for producing saffron stigma-like tissue, characterized by tissue culturing saffron flower tubes to produce saffron stigma-like tissue. (2) I tissue culture is carried out in a medium containing 5% by weight or more of satl concentration. The production method according to claim (11). (3) A method for producing a saffron useful ingredient, which comprises collecting a saffron useful ingredient from a saffron stigma-like tissue produced by tissue culturing a saffron flower tube. The saffron useful ingredient is , as mentioned above, in the case of natural production, it is contained in the stigma part that makes up the pistil of saffron, but according to the present invention, the part of the flower tube, which is originally a different part (organ) from the stigma, is tissue cultured. By doing so, stigma-like tissue can be efficiently produced, and useful components of saffron such as pigments can be efficiently collected (manufactured) from this stigma-like tissue. A method has been proposed in which the gynoecium is tissue cultured to produce stigma-like tissue (gynoecium-like organ), and saffron useful components such as pigments are produced from the stigma-like tissue obtained. The present invention is essentially different from the above-mentioned proposal in that the stigma-like tissue is produced by tissue culturing a part of the flower tube that is different from the female organs of saffron. The present invention is characterized in that it is possible to easily produce a larger number of stigma-like tissues and to increase the amount of pigment produced.According to the present invention, the culture medium containing plant hormones using
By culturing specific organs of saffron in the light or darkness, colored stigma-like tissues can be produced and grown. In the present invention, saffron flower tubes are tissue cultured. Here, the flower tube refers to the tube-shaped part where the petals are joined together, and the part that surrounds the colored stigma and style, which are usually used for saffron pigment production raw material and medicinal purposes, from the outside. It is a flower tube. Therefore, the flower tube is a different part from the female organ, which consists of the stigma, style, and ovary. It is true that stigma-like tissues can be produced by tissue culturing the female organs of saffron, but the method of the present invention is far superior in terms of the number of stigma-like tissues produced and the amount of pigment produced. It is. In the present invention, before flowering of saffron, that is, when the saffron is in the bud state, a portion of the flower tube is removed and subjected to tissue culture according to a conventional method to produce and proliferate stigma-like tissue. Similar results can be obtained when similar operations are performed after saffron flowers bloom, but the amount of stigma-like tissue produced tends to be slightly lower. In the present invention, when tissue culture is performed in a medium containing sig sugar at a concentration of 5% by weight or more, the effects of the present invention can be more significantly exhibited. Incidentally, the concentration of sila sugar in normal cases is as low as 3% by weight. Describing a typical example of the stigma-like structure obtained by the present invention, the shape is very similar to the stigma of a saffron pistil, and the color depends on the content of the produced saffron pigment.
Appears yellow to red. The medium that can be used in the present invention may be a basic medium for tissue culture and does not need to be particularly special. For example, Murashige-Skoog's medium, White's medium, Linsmaier-Skoog's medium, Gauthere's medium, Zrecke's medium, which are commonly used for the culture of plants. (T
Uecke's medium, Morel's (Motel) medium, etc. can be used. Among them, Murash
ige-Skoog's medium is preferred. In the present invention, culture is performed by adding plant hormones such as auxins and cytokinins to such a basic medium. Auxins that can be used in the present invention include α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA), indole acetic acid (IAA),
Examples include p-chlorophenoxyisobutyric acid, 2゜4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and examples of cytokinins include benzyladenine (BA), kinetin (K i), zeatin, and dihydrozeatin. Examples include. Among them, NAA and BA can be particularly preferably used in the present invention. The amount of plant hormones added to the medium is 0.0 for auxins.
It is preferable to contain 1 ppm or more, especially 0.1 to 10 ppm, and for cytokinins, 1 ppm or more,
In particular, it is preferable to contain 2 to 15 ppn+. The sucrose concentration in the medium is 3% by weight or more, especially 5 to 12% by weight.
% by weight is preferred. If the sucrose concentration is less than 3% by weight, the production of stigma-like tissue will decrease, which is not preferable. The tissue culture method carried out in the present invention may be, for example, a static culture method using a solid medium or a shaking culture method using a liquid medium. Examples of solid media include those containing about 0.8% by weight of agar, or Murashige-Sk containing 0.2% by weight of gellan gum.
oog medium etc. are used. Culture may be carried out in the light or in the dark. Culture temperature is 15-30
The temperature is preferably 20 to 30°C. 25 in Murashige-Skoog's medium
When cultured at ℃ in the dark, production of stigma-like tissue is usually observed after 1 to 2 months. The stigma-like tissue thus produced can be grown by subsequently culturing it in a solid medium or liquid medium in the dark or in the light. In order to extract the saffron pigment from the colored stigma-like mm grown according to the present invention, the stigma-like tissue is either left as is or ground, and then treated with a solvent such as water, aqueous ethanol, aqueous propylene glycol, etc. at room temperature or under heating. You can extract it to The absorption spectra in the ultraviolet and visible regions of the yellow colored liquid obtained by extracting the stigma-like tissue produced according to the present invention with water are taken, and this is the absorption spectrum of an aqueous saffron dye solution extracted from natural saffron stigmas. It was confirmed that the pigment obtained in the present invention is equivalent to natural saffron pigment. According to the present invention, compared to the case where saffron pigment is obtained through natural cultivation, it is possible to obtain a large amount of pigment in a short period of time regardless of the season. Stigma-like tissue obtained by the present invention,
The pigments extracted from this can be effectively used to color foods, cosmetics, etc., and as medicinal raw materials. [Examples and Comparative Examples] Example I Benzyl adenine (BA) and α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) were added to the Murashige-Skoog medium.
Add each in the amount shown in Table 1, and correct the sucrose concentration so that it becomes the amount shown in Table 1,
Further, gellan gum powder was added thereto at a concentration of 0.2% by weight, and the mixture was sterilized in an autoclave at 120°C for 20 minutes. The obtained solution was dispensed into a plastic petri dish with a diameter of 55 mm, and the solution was cooled and solidified to prepare a culture medium. On the other hand, before flowering, when the saffron is still in bud, the bud part is taken out and sterilized by immersing it in a 0.5 volume % sodium hypochlorite aqueous solution for 10 minutes. A portion was taken out, cut into a size of about 5 fi, and placed on the above-mentioned medium. When this was cultured statically at 25°C in the dark, depending on the amount of NAA and sucrose, production of stigma-like tissue was observed as early as 6 weeks after culture, and after 8 weeks, the production of stigma-like tissue was observed. It has grown and is colored red, producing a considerable amount of saffron pigment. The results shown in Tables 1 and 2 were obtained regarding the production amount and pigment concentration after 8 weeks of culture of the stigma-like tissue, respectively. Table 1 (apparent production amount of stigma-like tissue containing saffron pigment) (
Note) Apparent production amount of stigma-like tissue containing saffron pigment The amount equivalent to three stigma parts containing saffron pigment of natural saffron is (103), those with no quantity are (0), and the proportion between these is divided into The equivalent amount of stigma-like tissue containing saffron pigment generated per explant of the saffron tube part used for culture was determined visually, and the value was calculated by applying it to the above scale.

The values were calculated by applying the above scale. Comparative Example 1 Instead of culturing the saffron tube part in Example 1, the ovary part taken from the bud used in Example 1 was used and cultured under the same conditions. The results are shown in Tables 3 and 4. Table 3 (apparent production amount of stigma-like tissue containing saffron pigment) Table 4 (apparent pigment concentration of stigma-like tissue containing saffron pigment)
Example 2 Instead of using the Murashige-5koog basic medium (MS medium) in Example 1, a similar experiment was conducted using an MS modified medium in which the concentration of the inorganic salt portion was changed as shown in Table 5. went. The results are shown in Tables 6 and 7. In this example, the sucrose concentration was 6% by weight. In this example as well, similar to Example 1, good results were obtained. Table 5 (showing only the changed part of inorganic salt concentration) Table 6 (apparent production amount of stigma-like tissue containing saffron pigment) Table 7 (apparent pigment concentration of stigma-like tissue containing saffron pigment)
Comparing the results of the above Examples with those of Comparative Examples, it can be seen that when culture is performed using the well tube according to the present invention, a large amount of stigma-like tissues and pigments are produced, and the productivity is excellent.
