Plant Metabolism, Chemodiversity and Bioactive Natural Products: Integrating phylogeny, metabolomics, stress biochemistry, and quality traits in medicinal and edible plants

“Plant Metabolism, Chemodiversity and Bioactive Natural Products” brings together core concepts and current thinking in plant metabolism and natural product biosynthesis, the work of Dr. Sheetla Prasad. Its focus falls on Integrating phylogeny, metabolomics, stress biochemistry, and quality traits in medicinal and edible plants. Theory and evidence are drawn together so that principles are always tied back to how the work is actually done. Aimed at students and researchers working in plant metabolism and natural product biosynthesis, it is published by Khushbu Publications, Bengaluru, India under its Prime Academic Publishing House imprint, and released in 2026.
