phytochemistry
Phytochemistry is the study of chemical compounds produced by plants, encompassing their structures, biological functions, and biosynthetic pathways. These plant-derived chemicals serve critical roles in plant defense against pests and diseases, while also offering significant implications for human health and agricultural productivity. Understanding phytochemistry is fundamental to plant science, enabling researchers to unlock the biological mechanisms underlying plant survival and to discover bioactive compounds with potential medical and industrial applications.
