Summary

This special issue aims to explore the applications and advancements of plant chemistry in the context of environmental sustainability, focusing on how plant-derived compounds can provide solutions for sustainable agriculture, ecological conservation, and biodiversity. In the face of global environmental degradation and climate change, plant extracts and their bioactive components are increasingly recognized as innovative, sustainable resources. We invite contributions that encompass a wide range of research related to plant chemistry, including the bioactivity of plant extracts, bioremediation applications for soil and water pollution, the development of eco-friendly pesticides and natural antioxidants, and the utilization of plant compounds to enhance crop resilience.


Scope: The special issue welcomes original research articles, reviews, and case studies that cover the application and challenges of plant chemistry in environmental protection, ecological restoration, sustainable agricultural practices, food safety, and health, emphasizing their critical role in promoting environmental balance and resource conservation.
