Chamomile is well-known medicinal plant, comprise of ca. 100 species or varieties, cultivated in Europe, Asia, Australia, and North and South America (Hikawa 1998; Franke and Schilcher 2005). Two of these species, the annual herbaceous German chamomile (Matricaria recutita L., syn. Chamomilla recutita L.) and the perennial Roman chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile L., syn. Anthemis nobilis L.) are the most economically important in the production of essential oils that are used for pharmaceuticals and cosmetics (Franke and Schilcher 2005). The composition of essential oils is quite different between these two species. The major components of essential oil of German chamomile are sesquiterpenoids such as chamazulene, bisabolol, and its oxide, while those of Roman chamomile are hemiterpenoids such as angelic acid and its esters, and monoterpenoids like α-pinene (Omidbaigi et al. 2004; Franke and Schilcher 2005). It is of interest to breed to increase essential oil productivity in both species because of their low oil yield by steam distillation ca. 0.2~ 1.5%(v/w)(Hikawa 1998). Chromosome doubling is a powerful breeding method for increasing the productivity of secondary metabolites. To date, several plants have been successfully bred to increase production of secondary metabolites by chromosome doubling. For example, the productivity of tropane alkaloids has been increased to 122.5% in tetraploid plants compared to diploids in Hyoscyamus niger (Lavania and Srivastava 1991). In Artemisia annua, tetraploid hairy roots produced up to six times more sesquiterpene artemisinin than the diploid original (Jesus-Gonzalez and Weathers 2003). Moreover, enhanced productivities of essential oil as a secondary metabolite in tetraploid herbal plants have been reported, eg, caraway (Dijkstra and Speckmann 1980) and Japanese peppermint (Janaki-Ammal and Sobti 1962). In German chamomile, tetraploid plants have also been bred since 1960s because tetraploid plants were well known for their large-sized morphology and increased productivity of essential oils (Franke and Schilcher 2005). However, the productivity of essential oil by tetraploid plants and the establishment of efficient formation of tetraploid plants in Roman chamomile remain unreported.In this paper, we tried to establish an efficient chromosome doubling system in Roman chamomile by using an in vitro culture system. We also characterized the morphological phenotypes of mature regenerated tetraploid plantlets. In addition, the content and composition of essential oils in those plants are discussed.
