Wild Edible Vegetables of Lesser Himalayas provides a complete review of over 50 important plants of this region and details each species including photographs, botanical name, local name, family, flowering and fruiting period, status and habitat, parts used, distribution, ethnobotanical uses, cultural aspects, medicinal uses, and nutraceutical aspects. Medicinal uses include mode of preparation, method of application and diseases studied; cultural aspects and index; nutraceutical data provides analysis of fats, proteins, fibers, carbohydrates, ash, moisture content, dry matter, and energy value; elemental analysis includes various essential and toxic metals; phytochemical screening includes total phenolics, flavonoids, flavonols and ascorbic acid, and antioxidant potential in terms of DPPH scavenging activity, hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, H2O2 scavenging activity, Fe2+ chelating activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power, and phosphomolybdenum assay for each species. Wild Edible Vegetables of Lesser Himalayas is a concise and handy guide for scientists, scholars, and students interested in the study of agriculture, food science, nutraceutical science, bioscience, biodiversity, applied ethnobotany, ethnoecology, and ecology. . 606 $aBotany 606 $aBotany 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aBiodiversity 606 $aPlants$vClassification 606 $aPlants$vClassification 606 $aPlant anatomy 606 $aPlants$xDevelopment 606 $aPlant ecology 606 $aPlant Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000 606 $aPlant Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33020 606 $aBiodiversity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19031 606 $aPlant Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24051 606 $aPlant Anatomy/Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24019 606 $aPlant Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19112 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 0$aBiodiversity. 615 0$aPlants 615 0$aPlants 615 0$aPlant anatomy. 615 0$aPlants$xDevelopment. 615 0$aPlant ecology. 615 14$aPlant Sciences. 615 24$aPlant Physiology. 615 24$aBiodiversity. 615 24$aPlant Systematics/Taxonomy/Biogeography. 615 24$aPlant Anatomy/Development. 615 24$aPlant Ecology. 676 $a570 676 $a571.2 676 $a571.32 676 $a577 700 $aAbbasi$b Arshad Mehmood$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058813 702 $aShah$b Munir Hussain$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aKhan$b Mir Ajab$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298294203321 996 $aWild Edible Vegetables of Lesser Himalayas$92502645 997 $aUNINA
