This volume explores the fascinating world of plant-based bioactive compounds that have influenced healthcare systems across centuries. From ancient Ayurvedic and Chinese traditions to modern biotechnology, it reveals how nature’s pharmacy continues to inspire the development of medicines, nutraceuticals, and cosmeceuticals. It highlights the incredible diversity of medicinal plants and their secondary metabolites, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and glycosides, which have led to the discovery of many important therapeutic agents. The text emphasizes the growing importance of medicinal plants in the post-COVID era, reflecting the global shift toward sustainable and holistic health solutions. Blending traditional wisdom with advancements in genomics, metabolomics, molecular markers, and gene editing, it illustrates how biotechnology is reshaping plant-based drug discovery. This work serves as a valuable resource for researchers and professionals committed to uniting nature’s legacy with modern scientific progress.

Key Features:

This book
