Background & Aim: Osmotic stress in plants lead to increase free radicals and plants use different mechanisms to scavenge these radicals. So, researchers apply stresses especially drought stress to increase secondary metabolites such as phenolics, and antioxidants. One of the valuable medicinal plants is yarrow (Achillea tenuifolia) which is a perennial plant with different medicinal a...
