The text covers the ecological distribution of over 150 trees, which are characterized mainly on the basis of their unique properties and phytochemicals of medicinal importance (i.e., anti-allergic, anti-diabetic, anti-carcinogenic, anti-microbial, and possible anti-HIV compounds). Due to the incredibly large diversity of medicinal trees, it is not possible to cover all within one publication, so trees with unique medicinal properties that are relatively more common in many countries are discussed here in order to make it most informative for a global audience. With over 100 illustrations taken at different stages of plant development, this reference work serves as a tool for tree identification and provides morphological explanations. It includes the latest botanical research, including biochemical advancements in phytochemistry techniques such as chromatographic and spectrometric techniques. In addition, the end of each chapter presents the most up-to-date references for further sources of exploration. 606 $aPlants$vClassification 606 $aPlants$vClassification 606 $aBotanical chemistry 606 $aTrees 606 $aPlant anatomy 606 $aPlants$xDevelopment 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aPlant Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24051 606 $aPlant Biochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14021 606 $aTree Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L22024 606 $aPlant Anatomy/Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24019 606 $aPlant Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33020 615 0$aPlants 615 0$aPlants 615 0$aBotanical chemistry. 615 0$aTrees. 615 0$aPlant anatomy. 615 0$aPlants$xDevelopment. 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 14$aPlant Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography. 615 24$aPlant Biochemistry. 615 24$aTree Biology. 615 24$aPlant Anatomy/Development. 615 24$aPlant Physiology. 676 $a578.012 676 $a578.09 700 $aKhan$b Aisha Saleem$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0973686 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253916803321 996 $aMedicinally Important Trees$92215768 997 $aUNINA
