The volume also explores the characteristic odors and flavors of bryophytes, as well as their possible use in the cosmetics industry, as food additives, and ultimately as medicinal drugs. Additionally, the biosynthesis pathways and synthesis of selected bioactive bryophyte compounds are discussed, highlighting the potential of these fascinating and ancient plants as a source of novel and valuable natural products.
