Abstract
⺠We investigated the mechanism of action of Artemisia oil in inhibiting root growth. ⺠Artemisia oil enhanced hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion, and proline content. ⺠Artemisia oil induced lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress. ⺠In vivo detection studies confirmed Artemisia oil-induced ROS generation, and membrane disintegration. âºÂ ROS-scavenging enzymes were upregulated suggesting their role in secondary defense mechanism.
