Abstract The use of medicinal plants for different therapeutic values is well
documented in African continent. African diverse biodiversity hotspots provide
a wide range of endemic species, which ensures a potential medicinal value.
The feasible conservation approach and sustainable harvesting for the medicinal
species remains a huge challenge. However, conservation approach through different biotechnological tools such as micropropagation, somatic embryogenesis,
synthetic seed production, hairy root culture, molecular markers based study
and cryopreservation of endemic African medicinal species is much crucial. In
this review, an attempt has been made to provide different in vitro biotechnological approaches for the conservation of African medicinal… More >
