The aim of this study was to establish the condition of regeneration for white balloon flower (Platycodon grandiflorum DC. cv. Jangback) and to manage for the raising of seedling with in vitro regenerated plants. It was examined that 0.5 mg/L of NAA and 1.0 mg/L of BA was the best composition for the callus and shoot induction (up to 600%). NAA was better than IBA for the induction of root and it took 16.9 days for the induction of rooting on the MS soild media containing 0.5 mg/L of NAA and the final rooting ratio was up to 75%. Out of 5 different bed soils purchased from local market, "Tosil" was identified to be the best for the acclimation and growth of in vitro regenerated balloon flower. In detail, on 8 weeks after planting of in vitro regenerated plants in pots containing "Tosil" bed soils, the plant hight was increased up to 2-fold (12.8 cm), 3.5-fold (27) for the number of leaf and 1.5-fold (4.5 cm) for the leaf length when compared to the other four bed soils, respectively. Our preliminary results indicate that it is possible to prevent the occurrence of blue balloon flower in the massive cultivated area of white balloon flower by providing the seedlings raised from in vitro regenerated plants.

“…A. DC ), a single genus in the family Campanulaceae, is native to East Asia (Zhang et al 2015 ). In Korea, balloon flower root is mostly used for medicinal and culinary purposes, and its production value amounted to over 100 million U.S. dollars in 2011 (Lee et al 2014 ). Recently, platycodin D, an active ingredient derived from the roots of balloon flower, has been suggested as a potent natural product for preventing or treating COVID-19 infection by hindering membrane fusion (Kim et al 2021 ), which has led to increasing interest in the plant.…”

Waterlogging stress is a major limiting factor resulting in stunted growth and loss of crop productivity, especially for root crops. However, physiological responses to waterlogging have been studied in only a few plant models. To gain insight into how balloon flower ( Platycodon grandiflorus ( Jacq. ) A. DC ) responds to waterlogging stress, we investigate changes to sucrose metabolism combined with a physiological analysis. Although waterlogging stress decreased the photosynthetic rate in balloon flower, leaves exhibited an increase in glucose (ninefold), fructose (4.7-fold), and sucrose (2.1-fold), indicating inhibition of sugar transport via the phloem. In addition, roots showed a typical response to hypoxia, such as the accumulation of proline (4.5-fold higher than in control roots) and soluble sugars (2.1-fold higher than in control roots). The activities and expression patterns of sucrose catabolizing enzymes suggest that waterlogging stress leads to a shift in the pathway of sucrose degradation from invertase to sucrose synthase (Susy), which consumes less ATP. Furthermore, we suggest that the waterlogging-stress-induced gene PlgSusy1 encodes the functional Susy enzyme, which may contribute to improving tolerance in balloon flower to waterlogging. As a first step toward understanding the waterlogging-induced regulatory mechanisms in balloon flower, we provide a solid foundation for further understanding waterlogging-induced alterations in source-sink relationships.

Balloon flower (BF, Platycodon grandiflorum (Jacq.) A.DC.) is a monotypic species of the bellflower family (Campanulaceae), which is native to Asia. In terms of popular culture of east asian country, BF has been in the limelight as flowers, medicine and food. Platycosides (saponins) from the roots of BF are reported to have a wide range of efficacy and characterized by a structure containing a triterpenoid aglycone and two sugar chains. Saponins from BF are of pharmaceutical significance, and their applications are increasing with evidence of their efficacy. As the cultivation area of BF is continually increased in Korea, research for preventing root rot incidence and nitogen fertilizer application on yield of saponin are reported and also storaging, steam heating and bio-transformational method are developed. There are several biological effects of compounds from BF. saponin from BF has cholesterol lowering effects, neuroprotective activity, cytotoxic effects against cancer cells, and polysaccharide has immuno-boosting effects and pheolic compounds from aerial part of BF has anti-oxidative effects. However, The purchase decision factor of consumers in market is cultivate year of BF and producing country are also important as contents of platycodins in BF. This paper reviews the origin of plants, harvest and post harvest processing methods that maximize the value in terms of efficacy of extracts and platicoside from BF.
