- Intervention effect Charcoal and subculture rate significantly affected synthesis of phenolic compounds.
- Intervention effect Charcoal and subculture rate significantly affected accumulation of biomass.
- Intervention effect Medium without charcoal retained biomass accumulation.
- Intervention effect Intracellular phenolics in somatic embryos rose more than threefold.
- Intervention effect Extracellular phenolics in spent medium rose more than fivefold.
- Intervention effect Three-week subculture gave fivefold higher intracellular phenolics than weekly subculture.
