Abstract
The present invention provides a method for increasing the artemisinin yield in Artemisia annua L. using β-ocimene and belongs to the technical field of artemisinin production and extraction. The method treats Artemisia annua L. plants by β-ocimene for 1-3 d. The method selects Artemisia annua L. grown for at least 21 d as the object to be treated by β-ocimene. The method is very simple and can achieve multiple harvest within one year; meanwhile, it can significantly increase the artemisinin yield in Artemisia annua L. plant and largely increase the artemisinin yield, thereby achieving an industrialized operation.
