Screening of tarragon accessions based on physiological and phytochemical responses under water deficit

Abstract In this study, screening of Artemisia dracunculus accessions was investigated under water deficit based on physiological and phytochemical traits. The results clearly indicated that water deficit significantly reduced the relative water content, chlorophyll, and carotenoid contents and incr...
