Abstract:

Under shading and normal sunshine, three artemisiae annie were selected to study the effect of shading stress on the artemisinine content, wet weight of bud, diameter of bud, soluble protein content, soluble sugar, SOD, PAL, and total flavonoids in artemisiae annie. The experiment was conducted with three replications. The main results were summarized as follows : the artemisinine content, wet weight of bud, diameter of bud, soluble protein content, soluble sugar among artemisiae annie decreased under shading sunshine, while SOD, PAL, and total flavonoids increase, comparing with normal sunshine. Differences of them in artemisiae annie were significant between shading and normal sunshine.
