“…Sesquiterpenes, the largest class of terpenes, consist of three isoprene units and are represented by the molecular formula of C 15 H 24 ( dos Santos Franciscato et al., 2022 ). Some of the important known sesquiterpenes are: bisabolol found in Matricaria recutita ( Herrera et al., 2022 ); chamazulene found in Artemisia absinthium ( Mohammed, 2022 ); farnesol and cumin found in Vachellia farnesiana ; guaiazulene found in Cuminum cyminum ( Gilbertson and Koenig, 1981 ); and dicarabrol found in Carpesium abrotanoides L. (Asteraceae) and Lactarius indigo ( Jie-Wei et al., 2021 ).…”

Plants are the sources of many bioactive secondary metabolites which are present in plant organs including leaves, stems, roots, and flowers. Although they provide advantages to the plants in many cases, they are not necessary for metabolisms related to growth, development, and reproduction. They are specific to plant species and are precursor substances, which can be modified for generations of various compounds in different plant species. Secondary metabolites are used in many industries, including dye, food processing and cosmetic industries, and in agricultural control as well as being used as pharmaceutical raw materials by humans. For this reason, the demand is high; therefore, they are needed to be obtained in large volumes and the large productions can be achieved using biotechnological methods in addition to production, being done with classical methods. For this, plant biotechnology can be put in action through using different methods. The most important of these methods include tissue culture and gene transfer. The genetically modified plants are agriculturally more productive and are commercially more effective and are valuable tools for industrial and medical purposes as well as being the sources of many secondary metabolites of therapeutic importance. With plant tissue culture applications, which are also the first step in obtaining transgenic plants with having desirable characteristics, it is possible to produce specific secondary metabolites in large-scale through using whole plants or using specific tissues of these plants in laboratory conditions. Currently, many studies are going on this subject, and some of them receiving attention are found to be taken place in plant biotechnology and having promising applications. In this work, particularly benefits of secondary metabolites, and their productions through tissue culture-based biotechnological applications are discussed using literature with presence of current studies.
