The effects or polyamines on growth, anthocyanin contents and B-glucan synthetase(GSII) activity in carrot hairy root were studied. Growth of hairy root was stimulated somewhat when each polyamine concentration was treated, especially addition of 1mM spermidine resulted in about 20% increase. On the whole, the axial diameter of hairy root was increased in response to increase in concentration of polyamine. On the other hand, GSII activity was stimulated in response to increase in concentration of polyamine, especially addition of 1mM spermine resulted in about 100% increase of activity. Therefore increased activity of GSII stimulated growth and thickness of hairy root. Anthocyanin contents were not affected by the polyammine.
