This book provides researchers and advanced students associated
with plant and pharmaceutical sciences with comprehensive
information on medicinal trees, including their identification,
morphological characteristics, traditional and economic uses, along
with the latest research on their medicinal compounds. The text
covers the ecological distribution of over 150 trees, which are
characterized mainly on the basis of their unique properties and
phytochemicals of medicinal importance (i.e., anti-allergic,
anti-diabetic, anti-carcinogenic, anti-microbial, and possible
anti-HIV compounds). Due to the incredibly large diversity of
medicinal trees, it is not possible to cover all within one
publication, so trees with unique medicinal properties that are
relatively more common in many countries are discussed here in
order to make it most informative for a global audience. With over
100 illustrations taken at different stages of plant development,
this reference work serves as a tool for tree identification and
provides morphological explanations. It includes the latest
botanical research, including biochemical advancements in
phytochemistry techniques such as chromatographic and spectrometric
techniques. In addition, the end of each chapter presents the most
up-to-date references for further sources of exploration.
