Hairy root cultures of Pharbitis nil treated with CuSO₄ and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) produced umbelliferone (1) and scopoletin (2) in the culture medium, and skimmin (3), a β-D-glucopyranoside of 1, was isolated from the hairy roots. While 1 in the medium increased and reached a maximal level 16 h after the treatment with CuSO₄, the amount of 3 in the hairy roots decreased, reaching a minimal level after 8 h, before recovering to a level higher than the basal level after 24 h and then continuously increasing. These observations suggest that 1 was released by the hydrolysis of 3. Umbelliferone (1) inhibited hairy root growth, while skimmin (3) did not. This result suggests that, after the release of 1 as a phytoalexin, the hairy roots glycosylated 1 for the detoxification and re-use of 3 as a source of phytoalexin.
