Effect of IAA on coumarins synthesis in Angelica dahurica under soil compactness stress by Xinglong Zhu, Xiaoyan Chen, Chengfeng Huang, Yongfeng Zhou, Tao Zhou, Qinghua Wu, Jin Pei

“…It was found that both too low and too high soil compactness resulted in low biomass accumulation of A. dahurica, but the latter showed a higher rate of coumarins accumulation. IAA was positively correlated (p < 0.1) with various morphological parameters and total coumarins content, suggesting that IAA may be associated with coumarins synthesis. …”
