This book provides a comprehensive introduction and review of
state-of-the-art biotechnological tools in enhancement of bioactive
compounds in medicinal and aromatic plants. Plant bioactive
compounds are plant-based natural products that display a variety
of pharmacological applications. These bioactive compounds are
important as medicines, pigments, flavorings and drugs because most
of the pharmaceutical industries are highly dependent on medicinal
plants and their extraction. The book introduces a systematic
overview of state-of-the-art biotechnological techniques such as
Omics, Crisper /Cas9 and RNAi to enhance the plant bioactive
contents as well as enlists various in vitro techniques, hairy root
culture and transgenic technology to enhance plant bioactive
contents using plant tissue culture approaches. The book also
provides an overview of the role of induced mutation, biotic and
abiotic stress to increase the bioactive contents in plants and
discusses the significant role of endophytes to enhance the
contents of plant bioactive compound. The book also opens
discussions related to standard operating procedures using
hydroponics system of cultivation for significant enhancement of
bioactive compound(s) and much more. This book serves as an
excellent reference book for the researchers working in the field
of plant secondary metabolites and pharmaceutical industries at
global level.
