To develop an alternative medicine related with taxol/camptothecin, a hairy roots induction system for measuring triterpenoid saponin ardicrenin was established. In the current study, mature and healthy seeds of Ardisia crenata plants were selected for obtaining aseptic seedlings. Two Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains ATCC 15834 and A4 were used to infect aseptic euphylla for inducing hairy roots of A. crenata plants. For the best combination of seeds germination, a Murashige-Skoog medium containing 1.0 mg L⁻¹ 6-benzylaminopurine and 1.0 mg L⁻¹ naphthalene acetic acid was made, which reached a rate of 92.4 %. Results showed that ATCC 15834 and A4 both induced hairy roots of A. crenata for improving ardicrenin production. The PCR analysis demonstrated that ATCC 15834 and A4 Ri plasmid T-DNA had been successfully transferred and integrated into the genome of leaf cell nuclei, however the Vir region was not. Further, ardicrenin content in hairy roots ACHR 15834 8.2 %) induced by ATCC 15834 was quantified by the RP-HPLC, which was also 1.8-, 2.7-, 9.4- and 2.6-fold greater than those of ACHR 4 induced by A4 (4.5 %), ACR C formed by tissue culture (3.1 %), euphylla (0.8 %) and NR C formed nature (3.2 %), respectively. Taken together, hairy root lines of A. crenata obtained were able to express naturally more ardicrenin than natural plants.
