Abstract

Aquilaria filaria is a native tree species from the East Indonesian forests, whose heartwood produces an aromatic resin which is widely used as the fragrance raw material. This oleoresin known as “agarwood” is rich in unique olfactory molecules and exhibits great industrial demands with high market values globally. However, as a consequence of non-sustainable harvesting in the past, A. filaria has been included in the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) red list of threatened species. In an effort to meet the demand for the fragrance compounds from the valuable agarwood using plant biotechnology, this research aimed to evaluate the potential of A. filaria callus culture to produce volatile fragrance sesquiterpenes (SQTs) under the stimulation of selected biotic and abiotic elicitors. SQTs emitted from the callus cultures were extracted using a stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) method and the components were identified using GC-MS. The results revealed that the production of sixteen fragrance SQTs previously identified as the olfactory compounds of agarwood were highly inducible in in vitro A. filaria cultures. Some of those agarwood compounds were jinkohol, acorenone, α-agarofuran, dehydrojinkoh-eremol, spathulenol, α-guaiene, and α-cedrene. It was concluded that callus cultures of A. filaria have the potential to be developed as a bioreactor for the agarwood fragrance compounds production.
