Food security and the medicinal needs of billions of people around
the world are pressing global issues, and the biodiversity and
sustainable utilization of plants is of great significance in this
context. Further, ethnobotanical studies are vital in the discovery
of new drugs from indigenous medicinal plants, and plants with
industrially important metabolites need to be cultivated to meet
the growing market demand. In addition, the production of plant
metabolites under in vitro conditions also has tremendous
possibilities. The totipotency of plant cells plays a valuable role
in the sustainable utilization of plant resources through cell,
tissue and organ culture. At the same time, production can be
enhanced using productive cell lines, treatment with elicitors,
changing nutritional parameters and metabolic engineering. This
book provides state-of-the-art information on biodiversity,
conservation, ethnobotany, various aspects of In vitro secondary
metabolite production, bioprospecting from various plant groups and
drug discovery. It also discusses methods of extracting and
characterizing drug leads from plant sources.
