bioactive-compounds
Bioactive compounds are non-nutrient substances produced by plants that exert specific physiological effects on living organisms, despite not being essential for survival. In plant science, these compounds are significant because they represent the chemical diversity underlying plant biology and are central to research on plant-derived medicines and functional foods. Understanding bioactive compounds enables scientists to elucidate the biochemical mechanisms that define plant species' unique properties and therapeutic potential.
