Natural Products: Discourse, Diversity, and Design explores the natural products, or the secondary metabolites, produced by microbes, fungi, and plants. Natural products can be used in the development of a wide array of products such as drugs, herbicides, antioxidants, preservatives, pigments and dyes for materials, food, flavors, and fragrances. As science advances, it has become exceedingly clear that the potential of biological organisms to synthesize diverse natural products is likely to be far greater than ever previously imagined.

An accessible and informative overview of these natural products in the genomic era, Natural Products: Discourse, Diversity, and Design delves into the discovery, examination, and application of natural products across different kingdoms. Chapters explore their genetics and synthetic biology, methods for screening for bioactivity and their practical applications. Its wide scope guarantees its appeal to plant scientists, fungal biologists, and microbiologists, as well as those who work with industrial biotechnology, drug discovery, medicinal chemistry, agronomy, crop improvement, and natural product chemistry.

The volume is comprehensive in its treatment of biologically based products in the natural world. Natural Products: Discourse, Diversity, and Design will be a vital resource for anyone working in this rapidly developing field.
