This book provides insight into the biology and genomics of the
genus Boswellia (family Burseraceae), a natural resource used for
the production of frankincense, an oleo-gum resin. The Boswellia
species are ecologically, medicinally, commercially and culturally
important. Significantly contributing to the paucity of
comprehensive literature on this genus, this volume provides a
detailed discussion on the genomics, physiology and ecology of
Boswellia. The chapters cover a wide range of topics, including
taxonomy, distribution, genetic diversity and microbiology. The
production process of frankincense and its impact on the species
are presented as well. In light of the recent decline of various
Boswellia populations, species propagation and conservation are
discussed. Plant scholars, ecologists and conservation biologists
will find this book to be an important and informative reference.
