Title A name given to the resource Genetic Diversity of Garcinia gummi-gutta and Sustainable Utilization Description An account of the resource The chapter discusses the consequences of using Garcinia gummi-gutta, often known as Malabar Tamarind, sustainably while diving into the complex web of genetic variation inside the crop. Giving a thorough overview, the chapter starts by detailing the botanical and genetic traits of this enigmatic species, revealing the morphological quirks and genetic differences that make it distinct. Examining the range and preferred habitats helps to highlight the ecological niches that are essential to its existence. It delves intently into the complex web of phytochemicals found in various plant parts and explains their range of biological functions. A crucial component of this study is a thorough examination of the techniques used to gauge the genetic diversity of populations of G. gummi-gutta. The assessment of G. gummi-gutta's conservation status indicates that threats to the species genetic richness need to be taken seriously and quickly addressed. The difficulties in attaining sustainable use are examined in detail, offering a comprehensive grasp of the nuances related to overexploitation and conservation initiatives. This study of G. gummi-gutta offers evidence of the complex interplay in the field of botanical resources between genetic diversity, conservation, and sustainable use. 2025 Hosakatte Niranjana Murthy.
