Cultivated gingers of peninsular Malaysia: ultilization profiles and micropropagation
There are approximately 160 species of Zingiberaceae belonging to 18 genera in Peninsular Malaysia. Roughly 16-20 are traditionally utilized by the indigenous folks as spices, condiments, vegetables, food flavours and medicines. The resurgence of interest in herbs and potential lucrative anticipated...

The resurgence of interest in herbs and potential lucrative anticipated revenues from the herbal industry have spurred renewed interest in exploiting traditional knowledge and practices into scientific realities. Current research priorities offer promising developed of natural resources into neutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals and biopharmaceuticals. Hence the need to profile of fingerprint species for quality control and consistency of the species utilized.
