Preface
Medicinal plants have been used for cen-
turies to treat various diseases including
infectious disorders. Several traditional
medical systems (e.g., Traditional Chinese
Medicine, Ayurveda, Greek medicine) use
plant species to cure disorders known to be
caused or worsened by microbial infections
such as fever, abscess, wounds, tuberculo-
sis, and urinary tract infections. To validate
these traditional uses and discover new
drugs, scientific investigations of medicinal
plants with anti-infective properties have
been carried out since the last century. One
of the most famous examples of drug dis-
covery from anti-infectives plants is the
compound artemisinin isolated from
Artemisia annua L.,
1
which was used in the
traditional Chinese medicine to treat vari-
ous type of fevers, and then investigated by
Youyou Tu in the 1970s to cure malaria.
Forty years later, artemether,
1
an artemisi-
nin derivative, led to the development
of an antimalarial drug approved by the
FDA, which is now listed on the WHO’s
List of Essential Medicines. Because other
medicinal plants led to the discovery of
new anti-infective drugs and some other
are currently under investigation (e.g., ber-
berine isolated from Berberis species such as
Berberis vulgaris
1
), an appraisal of the cur-
rent knowledge of plant-derived com-
pounds investigated for their antimicrobial
properties is necessary. This includes plants
studied for their antibacterial, antifungal,
antimalarial, and antiviral properties.
Historically, the validation of traditional
usage and the discovery of drugs from
plants is based on interdisciplinary fields
such as ethnobotany (recordings of tradi-
tional medical knowledge, and collection/
identification of plant species), phytochem-
istry (plant extracts preparation and
chemical characterization of bioactive com-
pounds), and pharmacology (biological
evaluation of plant extracts). However,
recent innovations and regulations in each
field are changing the way to study medici-
nal plants. For example, metabolomics
allow for a faster identification of active
compounds, DNA barcoding help to avoid
misidentification of medicinal plants, new
pharmacological tools (e.g., quorum sens-
ing, antibiofilm) lead to a better under-
standing of the mechanism of action, new
targets (e.g., fungal endophytes) uncover
new drugs from plants, new approaches
(e.g., reverse pharmacology) simplify and
speed up the process of safety and efficacy
evaluation, and new regulations (i.e.,
Nagoya Protocol) induce a change in the
documentation of traditional knowledge
and collection of genetic resources. Finally,
the paradigm of the higher therapeutic
value of single compounds from plants ver-
sus plant extracts is changing, and phyto-
medicines are becoming more attractive.
The book Medicinal Plants as Anti-infec-
tives: Current Knowledge and New Perspectives
is organized in two independent sections
which aims to:
• describe the medicinal plants and plant-
derived compounds investigated for
1
Pictures of these plant species and representation of
the compound are shown on the book front cover.

their anti-infective properties in different
geographic area (i.e., the Balkans,
Colombia, India, Lebanon, Mali,
Pakistan, South Africa, Southeast Asia
and West Africa); and
• provide an overview of the main recent
innovations and regulations for
selecting, accessing, evaluating,
identifying, and legalizing anti-infective
medicinal plants.
This book is intended to target a large
audience including scientists in the field of
phytomedicine, pharmacognosy, ethnobot-
any, ethnopharmacology, and phytochem-
istry; students in schools of pharmacy
following courses on pharmacognosy and
undergraduate students following cours es
on ethnobotany, biology, and chemistry;
international and national agencies (e.g.,
WHO, FDA in the US, ANSES in France)
responsible for assessing the benefits and
risks associated with the use of health pro-
ducts including plants and plant-derived
compounds; and pharmaceutical compa-
nies or any private companies interesting
in legal rules to access biodiversity and
new technologies for drug discovery
purposes.
I would like to sincerely thank all the
experts for sharing their knowledge and
contributing to this book. In spite of the
Covid-19 pandemic, they all made great
effort to finish their chapters on time and
provide a meticulous examination of their
field.

Introduction
Colombia is located in the northwestern corner of South America, in the connection area of
this subcontinent with Central America. It is the only South American country that has coasts
on the Atlantic (1600 km) and Pacific (1300 km) oceans. Its continental territory extends from
12 degrees 26
0
46v N in Punta Gallinas, La Guajira (the northernmost point of South America),
to 4 degrees 12
0
30v S, at the mouth of the San Antonio Creek on the Amazon River, in the
city of Leticia, and from 60 degrees 50
0
54v W, on the island of San Jose
´
,ontheNegroRiver
(point of convergence of the borders of Colombia, Brazil, and Venezuela) to 79 degrees 02
0
33v
or at Cape Manglares, at the mouth of the Mira River, in the Pacific Ocean. The equatorial
line crosses the south of the country, in such a way that 87% of the continental territory is in
the Northern Hemisphere. The Colombian territory also includes the Gorgona (26 km
2
)and
Gorgonilla (1.1 km
2
) islands, located in the Pacific Ocean at 2 degrees 58
0
N, about 29 km from
the coast, and Malpelo Island (0.35 km
2
), an oceanic rock located at 4 degrees N and 465 km
west of the continent (
Bernal, Gradstein, & Celis, 2016).
In the Caribbean Sea, the Colombian territory also includes the archipelago of San
Andre
´
s and Providencia, located off the coast of Nicaragua, between 12 degrees and 16
degrees 30
0
N and 78 degrees and 82 degrees W. This archipelago includes the islan ds of
San Andre
´
s (26 km

), Providencia (17 km

), and Santa Catalina (1 km
2
), along with several
