Collectively, plants produce over 400k natural products that they use for development and defence. Many of these compounds interact with human biological functions, and thus may serve as pharmaceutical agents. Given the high number of plant-derived natural products, a large number of plant natural products have not been tested for efficacy as potential drugs.

这些植物总共生产超过40万种天然产品，用于发展和防御。这些化合物中的许多与人类生物功能相互作用，因此可以用作药剂。鉴于大量的植物源性天然产物，大量的植物天然产物尚未被测试作为潜在药物的功效。
