The compounds were determined in 80% aqueous methanol extracts from roots and aerial parts of plants obtained from in vitro (MtRV and MtAPV) and in vivo (MtRS and MtAPS) cultures. Different superscript letter within the rows indicate significant differences in the mean values at p < 0.05. The compounds present in the highest concentrations are given in bold
