Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated tumor tissue and shooty teratomas of Coleus forskohlii were cultured in vitro. Forskolin was detected in tumorous callus (0.002%), rhizogenic callus (0.011%) and root cultures (0.014%), but not in shooty teratomas. Forskolin synthesis and accumulation in tumorous C. forskohlii cultures may permit the elucidation of diterpene metabolism in this species.
