Detailed Phytochemical Analysis of High- and Low Artemisinin-Producing Chemotypes of Artemisia annua

Chemical derivatives of artemisinin, a sesquiterpene lactone produced by Artemisia annua, are the active ingredient in the most effective treatment for malaria. Comprehensive phytochemical analysis of two contrasting chemotypes of A. annua resulted in the characterization of over 80 natural products...
