Sanguisorba officinalis L. (Great Burnet): In Vitro Culture and Production of Sanguiin, Tannins, and Other Secondary Metabolites

  • Chapter
Medicinal and Aromatic Plants VIII

Part of the book series: Biotechnology in Agriculture and Forestry ((AGRICULTURE,volume 33))

Abstract

Sanguisorba plants, the hardy herbaceous perennials belonging to the family Rosaceae, are distributed in temperate parts of the northern hemisphere. In North America, as many as five species such as S. canadensis, S. officinalis, S. dodecandra, S. obtusa and S. tenuifolia are found and grown in native plant gardens. These plants are suitable for grouping in beds and borders for landscaping purposes (Everett 1981).
