      abstract = {This reference work provides a comprehensive overview of  bioactive compounds investigated in bryophytes and  pteridophytes and explores their nutritional, biological,  pharmacological and ecological effects. Bryophytes are  cosmopolitan lower plants that are rich in phytochemicals  including fatty acids, tocopherols, phenolics, terpenoids.  Additionally, these plants contain bibenzyls, bis-benzyls,  and polyketides which have been demonstrated to have  antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and cytotoxic activities.  Pteridophytes are another group of lower vascular plants  which were reported to have useful secondary compounds such  as flavonoids, steroids, phenolics, terpenoids, and these  plants impart medicinal values including antioxidant,  antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and anti-HIV  activities. This book contains comprehensive contributions  compiled by expert scientists and researchers in this  field.The book offers a useful resource for plant  biotechnologists, plant biologists, pharmacologists,  pharmacists, food technologists, nutritionists, research  investigators of the healthcare industry, academia,  faculty, and students of biology and biomedical sciences.  It also provides a strategic framework for further research  and development activities of bryophytes and pteridophytes  of the world. .},
