Preface

We are pleased to present a five volume treatise on “Natural products:

phytochemistry, botany and metabolism”. Natural products are as diverse as plant

biodiversity and it was a herculean task to bring together several hundred leading

scientists distributed all over the world to contribute in this project.

This five volumes work on Natural Products is reference work providing

state-of-the-art knowledge composed by highly renowned scientists in their field.

The book is intended to serve the needs of graduate students, Ph.D. scholars,

researchers in the field of phytochemistry, botany, agricultural sciences, pharmacy,

nutrition, biotechnology and, industrial scientists and those involved in marketing

phytochemicals, plants and their extracts. The present reference work will

encompass the information about well established phytochemicals, biology and

biotechnology of medicinal plants or their products, their biosynthesis, novel

production strategies, demand and uses, metabolism and bioavailability. This

book is a work of tertiary literature containing digested knowledge in an easily

accessible format.

Use of medicinal plants is as old as human civilization and continuous efforts are

being made to explore new and old medicinal plants for novel bioactive molecules

or to produce these products in high amounts through modern technologies. About

200,000 natural products of plant origin are known and many more are being

identified from higher plants and micro-organisms. Some plants based drugs are

used since centuries and there are not many alternatives for some natural drugs as

cardiac glycosides or morphine. Various facets of bioactive molecules have

developed very rapidly in the last two decades particularly due to newer tools of

isolation and identification as well as refined molecular techniques to establish the

biological properties of isolated molecules. This endeavour is to timely compile this

vast data generated in recent past. This is well reflected in 139 chapters running in

over 4000 pages of text and vast literature cited in each chapter. The readers will

find comprehensive information on almost all bioactive molecules. While planning

this book our endeavour was to incorporate articles that cover the entire gamut of

bioactive molecules of all the three major classes, viz., alkaloids, phenolics and

terpenes. Each volume is further divided into sections such as General Biology and

Biotechnology; Classes - Occurrence, Biosynthesis, Structure and Chemistry,

v

Distribution; Methods of Analysis; (para) Pharmacology and Bioavailability; and

Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods (in phenolics).

Some examples are sufficient to illustrate the spectrum of chapters in different

sections such as: on alkaloids (Biotechnology and genetic engineering for alkaloid

production, various classes of alkaloids e.g., Purine alkaloids, Ergot alkaloids,

Terpenoid indole alkaloids, Pharmacological effects of ephedrine, Lycopodium

alkaloids, Biological activities of pepper alkaloids, Neurotoxic alkaloids from

cyanobacteria, Prevention of brain disorders by nicotine, Opioids and pain

treatment, Ecological roles of alkaloids); on phenolics (Genetics of flavonoids,

Functional foods: Genetics, metabolome and engineering, phytonutrient levels,

Cocoa cultivation, directed breeding and polyphenolics, classes of phenolics,

Polyphenols and anticancer activity, Tannins and anthocyanins of wine:

phytochemistry and organoleptic properties, Polyphenols and beer quality, Wine

polyphenols and vascular protective effects, Isoflavonoids and phytoestrogenic

activity, Functional grapes, Potential neuroprotective actions of dietary flavonoids,

Prospects of functional foods / nutraceuticals and markets), and on terpenes (Ter-

penes: Chemistry, biological role and therapeutic applications, Biotransformation

of terpenoids and steroids, Production and genetic engineering of terpenoids pro-

duction in plant cell cultures and organ cultures, Taxol-producing fungi, Metabolic

engineering of isoprenoids biosynthesis, classes of terpenes, Cannabinoids: Chem-

istry and Medicine, Phytosterols: Beneficial effects, Ginsenosides: Biological

activities, Ginkgolides and neuroprotective effects, Quassinoids: Anti-cancer and

antimalarial activities, Phytoecdysteroids: phytochemistry and pharmacological

activity, Brassinosteroids and their biological activity, and so on).

These compounds exhibit various ecological functions, provide protection

against attack by herbivores and microbes, and serve as attractants for pollinators

and seed-dispersing agents. Natural products are explored as sources of drugs,

flavouring agents, fragrances and for a wide range of therapies. Rapid progress

has been made in recent years in understanding natural product accumulation and

synthesis, and regulation and functions. It is timely to bring this information

together with contemporary advances in chemistry, plant biology, ecology, and

pharmacology and metabolism of natural products in the form of a comprehensive

treatise on natural products.

Because of the voluminous work for the treatise, this project was spread over

almost two years, from concept to print. We would like to acknowledge

cooperation, patient and support of our contributors who have put their serious

efforts to ensure the high scientific quality of this book with up to date information.

This work could not be completed without active support of Springer team who

took pains in streamlining the production process. We are particularly indebt to

Drs. Marion Hertel, Lydia Muller, Sylvia Blago and Simone Giesler for their

continuous support from very inception of the project.
