Zusammenfassung: Part I: Introductory Articles -- Part II: Bioactive Compounds in Mangroves -- Part III: Bioactive Compounds in Mangrove-Associates (bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes) -- Part IV: Applications.Zusammenfassung: TBC Mangroves are woody plants that grow along tropical and warm temperate coasts. Mangroves are uniquely suited to hostile environments that are inhospitable to other plant species. This forest system has a simple structural design, produces the most biomass in the inter-tidal and estuarine regions, and has a larger standing crop than any other aquatic system on the planet. Its viviparous germination, salt management, nitrogen retention, and well-developed aerial roots make it unusual both physically and functionally. Mangroves, sometimes referred to as "Coastal woodland", "Oceanic rain forest", and "Tidal forest", are the only "blue carbon" woods found in the ocean. Mangrove forests are essential both economically and ecologically. They are home to birds, reptiles, mammals, crabs, prawns, mollusks, finfish, and nurseries as well as breeding and feeding areas. The mangroves produce lumber, honey, medicines, firewood, livestock feed, and boost tourism. Mangrove forests eliminate harmful heavy metals and other coastal pollutants. They provide coastal defense against the destructive power of storm surges, floods, cyclones, and tsunamis. Mangroves have exceptional potential for sequestering and capturing carbon, which can help lessen the effects of climate change and global warming. Mangroves and the bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes that live there are the source of compounds with antibacterial, hypoglycemic, hypoglycemic, and anti-inflammatory qualities, including phenolics, terpenoids, and alkaloids. Additionally, they constitute a distinctive source of metabolites with remarkable biological activity. Studies on bioactive compounds found in mangrove species as well as bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes related to mangroves are included in this book. This volume's chapter provides insight into several research areas that have advanced our knowledge of the synthesis of bioactive compounds and the specific ways in which the bioactive principles of these compounds are expressed in mangrove plants, bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes. Each chapter includes self-explanatory images and tables in addition to the main text. We have taken a broad approach and have highlighted the most intriguing aspects of bioactive substances from the mangrove plants and their associates, even if the topics addressed in this volume are not meant to be exhaustive. .PPN: PPN: 1923383817Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-145 | ZDB-2-SXRP | ZDB-2-SXCH | ZDB-2-SLR
