Samenvatting
Plants underpin life on Earth, yet biodiversity is slipping away. Centering on endemic species, Biodiversity and Conservation of Endemic Medicinal Plants: Challenges and Strategies for Sustainable Ecosystems reveals their unique traits, specialized habitats, and vital roles in ecological networks, from pollinator partnerships to community dynamics. It evaluates conservation status against the IUCN Red List and national frameworks, maps the major threats, and pairs them with in situ and ex situ responses.
Blending ecological science with socioeconomic insight, the editors highlight policies from local to global scales and the importance of community participation, indigenous knowledge, and fair benefit‑sharing. With evidence from physiology, genetics, and population ecology, this book offers practical, adaptive strategies that protect biological and cultural diversity while supporting sustainable livelihoods—a timely call to action for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers.
