Growing consumer interest in organic and herbal-based products has
led to great demand in the botanicals industry in the past few
years. However, the growing number of products utilizing medicinal
and aromatic plants (MAPs) has threatened an estimated 9,000
medicinal plant species worldwide, making it critical to reevaluate
their research and development, production, and utilization.
Continuing advances in Omics methodologies and instrumentation are
essential to understanding how plants cope with the dynamic nature
of their growing environment, how yields and characteristics can be
improved, and how to most effectively direct conservation efforts.
With a focus on metabolomics, genomics, proteomics,
transcriptomics, and more, Medicinal and Aromatic Plants: Expanding
Their Horizons through Omics illustrates the genetic mechanisms of
MAPs, providing a better understanding of MAPs conservation and
methods to improve characteristics for medical applications. With
an introduction on the role of MAPs in human health, subsequent
chapters discuss using proteomics to increase MAP yields and plant
quality, genome editing, and CRISPR/Cas9. A valuable resource for
farmers, scientists, chemists, biochemists, pharmacists, and
students interested in medicinal and aromatic plants and plant
biology, Medicinal and Aromatic Plants: Expanding Their Horizons
through Omics ensures readers have the background knowledge to put
the necessary methodologies into practice themselves.
