An R2R3-MYB Transcription Factor Positively Regulates the Glandular Secretory Trichome Initiation in Artemisia annua L.

Artemisia annua L. is known for its specific product “artemisinin” which is an active ingredient for curing malaria. Artemisinin is secreted and accumulated in the glandular secretory trichomes (GSTs) on A. annua leaves. Earlier studies have shown that increasing GST density is effective in increasi...
