O knihe
The biodiversity has been particularly investigated in the context of designing efficient programs of monitoring biodiversity and setting out conservation priorities The Global Biodiversity Assessment recommends that such assessment requires a detailed knowledge of species distribution in particular landscapes. India's Biological Diversity Act 2002 aims to promote conservation, sustainable use and equitable sharing of benefits of India's biodiversity resources. In this context, traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and its implication in the field of ethnobiology is of special focus in view of its grim scenario due to the diverse environmental perturbations. Therefore, specific emphasis should be given to ethno-medicinal plants while setting priorities for biodiversity conservation in India. Etnomedicines, derived from plants, enjoy a respectable position today, especially in the developing countries, where modern health service is limited. Safe, effective and inexpensive indigenous remedies are gaining popularity among the people of both urban and rural areas of India. Moreover, the role of medicinal plants in Human health is mentioned.
