Mangrove bioresources are considered as promising for bioprospecting due to rich biological diversity such as food, pharmaceutical, agricultural, and industrial sectors. Mangrove fruits are one of the most important bioresource used by coastal communities of Odisha, India and contributing significantly to food security and livelihood. However, some potential and functional mangrove fruits which are still underutilized and underexplored due to escaped attention and scientific inquiry. Therefore, the present review aims to provide a comprehensive study of edibility, socio-economic importance, nutritional, antinutritional, and antioxidant properties of mangrove fruits of Odisha. Several fruits such as and which are nutritious and also used in pharmaceutical industries to produce anticancer, antidiabetic, antitumor, and other therapeutic agents. Hence, bioprospecting, conservation, and commercialization of underutilized mangrove fruits can be a potential way of ensuring food, medicine, and nutritional security in future.
由于红树林生物资源在食物、制药、农业和工业等领域具有丰富的生物多样性,因此被认为具有生物勘探的潜力。红树林果实是印度奥里萨邦沿海社区使用的最重要的生物资源之一,对粮食安全和生计做出了重大贡献。然而,由于缺乏关注和科学研究,一些具有潜力和功能的红树林果实仍未得到充分利用和探索。因此,本综述旨在全面研究奥里萨邦红树林果实的可食用性、社会经济重要性、营养、抗营养和抗氧化特性。几种果实,如 和 ,营养丰富,还用于制药行业生产抗癌、抗糖尿病、抗肿瘤和其他治疗剂。因此,对未充分利用的红树林果实进行生物勘探、保护和商业化,可能是未来确保食物、药品和营养安全的一种潜在途径。
