Building a genomic and herbarium biorepository for medicinal plants of the Western Ghats
Medicinal plants support healthcare for millions of people and sustain livelihoods, yet many threatened species lack secure long‐term genetic protection. This study establishes a genomic and herbarium biorepository for medicinal plants of the Western Ghats, a global biodiversity hotspot facing intense human pressure.

Abstract Introduction The fragmentation of the Atlantic Forest has caused severe biodiversity loss. In Paraná State, more than 96% of the original vegetation, predominantly semideciduous seasonal forest, has been degraded. Ecological restoration is a key strategy to reverse this scenario, aiming to recover environmental conditions equivalent to the ...
