商品描述
The family Apocynaceae is one of the largest and important families in angiosperm, with several members having medicinal properties used to treat various ailments. Most of them are consumed as food by tribal people, while a few plants are used as a source of poison, insecticides, gum, and many other important products. Members of this family are rich in alkaloids, terpenoids, steroids, flavonoids, glycosides, simple phenols, lactones and hydrocarbons. Other compounds such as sterols, lignans, and sugars have also been systematically studied. Extracts and isolated compounds from Apocynaceae members exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and cytotoxic activities. Notable plants like Holarrhena antidysenterica, Rauvolfia serpentina, Carissa carandas, and Tabernaemontana divaricata have been extensively researched. The family presents a diverse range of bioactive compounds with medicinal and pharmacological properties, holding promise for future applications.
The book also covers endophytic microorganisms with their diversity, biological activities in Apocynaceae plants. It also highlights the role of endophytes in conservation of Apocynaceae plants. By identifying existing knowledge gaps, it aims to inspire further research in the field, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers in Life Sciences, agriculture, medicine, and pharmaceutical sciences.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書提供了對夾竹桃科（Apocynaceae）植物家族的簡明概述，重點介紹其形態學、多樣性、民族藥理學、植物化學及生物活性。書中探討了在治療性生物活性化合物的大規模生產及利用植物組織培養進行保育工作的生物技術進展。
夾竹桃科是被子植物中最大且重要的科之一，許多成員具有藥用特性，可用於治療各種疾病。大多數植物被部落人民作為食物消費，而少數植物則用作毒藥、殺蟲劑、樹膠及其他許多重要產品的來源。該科成員富含生物鹼、萜類、類固醇、類黃酮、糖苷、簡單酚類、內酯和碳氫化合物。其他化合物如甾醇、木酚素和糖類也已被系統性研究。來自夾竹桃科成員的提取物和分離化合物展現出抗氧化、抗炎、抗微生物及細胞毒性活性。像是 Holarrhena antidysenterica、Rauvolfia serpentina、Carissa carandas 和 Tabernaemontana divaricata 等著名植物已被廣泛研究。該科呈現出多樣的生物活性化合物，具有藥用和藥理特性，未來應用前景可期。
本書還涵蓋了內生微生物在夾竹桃科植物中的多樣性及生物活性，並強調內生菌在夾竹桃科植物保育中的角色。通過識別現有的知識空白，旨在激勵該領域的進一步研究，使其成為生命科學、農業、醫學及藥學領域學生和研究人員的寶貴資源。
