Poplar (Populus alba "pyramidalis") callus cultures grown either under light conditions or in the dark gave different growth rates and maxima of fresh mass. The content of total ethanol-soluble phenolics in the dark-grown tissues was lower during the whole 40-day growth period as compared with the light-grown ones. Under both conditions the concentration of ethanol-soluble phenolics changed, and 2 peaks of L-phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity were observed. A significant difference was also found between both studied tissue types in the gradual raise of PAL activity in the illuminated tissues at later stages of growth.
