The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Abscisic acid (ABA) treatment increases artemisinin content in Artemisia annua by enhancing the expression of genes in artemisinin biosynthetic pathway (2009, background): “Gibberellic acid, a plant hormone that can induce blooming, has been reported to improve growth and artemisinin biosynthesis in shoot cultures, root cultures and plantlets of A. annua (Fulzele et al. 1995; Smith et al. 1997; Weathers et al. 2005; Zhang et al. 2005).”
Hairy root cultures: A suitable biological system for studying secondary metabolic pathways in plants (2013, background): “annua hairy root cultures produce artemisinin [32].”
Stimulation of crop productivity, photosynthesis and artemisinin production in Artemisia annua L. by triacontanol and gibberellic acid application (2010, background): “On the other hand, GA3 also improved the level of artemisinin content as studied by Ferreira and Janick (2002), Weathers et al. (2005) and Zhang et al. (2005).”
