Comparative analysis of trichome density in transformed and untransformed plants of Artemisia annua and Artemisia dubia. a Trichome density in shoots roots and hairy roots of Artemisia annua. A1, A2 and A3 represents three different transgenic lines of leaves, AR1, AR2 and AR3 represents transformed roots of transgenic lines A1, A2, A3 respectively, AH1 and AH2 represents two transgenic lines of hairy roots, AC and ARC represent control shoots and roots of respectively. b. Trichome density in shoots roots and hairy roots of Artemisia dubia. D1, D2 and D3 represents three transgenic lines of leaves, DR1, DR2 and DR3 represents transformed roots of transgenic lines D1, D2, D3, respectively, DH1 and DH2 represents two transgenic lines of hairy roots, DC and DRC represent control shoots and roots of respectively. Both technical and biological replicates were performed. The average of three plants is shown together with error bars showing SD. Data analysed for significant difference at P < 0.001 with the control by Welch’s two samples t test
