Overview

Systematic review explores agarwood induction techniques and pharmacological potential, highlighting conservation needs.

Key Points

  • Agarwood production methods need improvement to enhance yield, and artificial techniques like fungal inoculation can aid this process.
  • Authentication of agarwood species is critical due to morphological similarities; DNA barcoding can provide accurate identification.
  • Research into agarwood's pharmacological properties shows significant potential for development of new drugs targeting antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects.
  • Sustainable use of agarwood is essential, given concerns over overharvesting and illegal trade, and may require advanced biotechnological approaches.
