AaSPL9 affects glandular trichomes initiation by positively regulating expression of AaHD1 in Artemisia annua L.

Yilong He et al.

Summary: In this study, AaSPL9 was identified as a positive regulator of glandular trichome initiation in Artemisia annua. Overexpression of AaSPL9 increased the density of glandular trichomes and the content of artemisinin. The study also revealed the molecular mechanism by which AaSPL9 promotes glandular trichome initiation by activating the expression of AaHD1.

Discovery and modulation of diterpenoid metabolism improves glandular trichome formation, artemisinin production and stress resilience in Artemisia annua

Ruibing Chen et al.

Summary: The study identified diverse diterpenoid biosynthesis pathways in Artemisia annua, showcasing their important roles in plant organ development and stress resistance. Results demonstrate that metabolic engineering of diterpenoids can increase artemisinin yield and plant stress resilience simultaneously. In addition, bioactive gibberellins GA(4)/GA(1) contribute to the formation of glandular trichomes.

AaWRKY9 contributes to light- and jasmonate-mediated to regulate the biosynthesis of artemisinin in Artemisia annua

Xueqing Fu et al.

Summary: AaWRKY9 positively regulates artemisinin biosynthesis by directly binding to the promoters of AaDBR2 and AaGSW1. In the light pathway, the key regulator AaHY5 plays a critical role in activating the expression of AaWRKY9. Additionally, AaWRKY9 interacts with AaJAZ9 in the JA signaling pathway, and the transcriptional activation activity of AaWRKY9 is increased in the presence of methyl jasmonate.

The WRKY transcription factor AaGSW2 promotes glandular trichome initiation in Artemisia annua

Lihui Xie et al.

Summary: This study identified a molecular mechanism involving homeodomain and WRKY proteins that controls glandular trichome initiation, which is shared by Artemisia annua and mint cultivars. Overexpression of a specific transcription factor in A. annua significantly increased glandular secreting trichome density, demonstrating a potential strategy to enhance the production of valuable secondary metabolites like artemisinin.
