Our research aimed the obtaining a proliferative tissue at 7 bilberry (Vaccinium mytillus L.) local population, to select some anthocyanins producing tissue lines by in vitro culture. The tissue lines selected from Arieseni, Semenic, Retezat, Valea Sebesului, Buces-Vulcan, Vadul Dobrii and Cornereva local population, with good results of callus growth capacity in subculture, produced anthocyanins (646 mgC3GE/100g). These results demonstrated the possibility to elaborate a production system of these metabolites in controlled conditions.
