phytochemicals
Phytochemicals are naturally occurring chemical compounds synthesized by plants, encompassing both essential nutrients and specialized metabolites produced for survival and reproduction. These compounds are fundamental to understanding plant physiology, enabling plants to defend against environmental stressors, pathogens, and herbivores while regulating growth and development. Their study is essential for advancing knowledge in plant biology, breeding for crop resilience, and exploring their broader applications in agriculture and human health.
