Abstract
- The author discusses the criteria in selecting plants for pharmacognostic studies. The author cites that plants with a documented history of usage by traditional healers is the best choice for a good start of research while own field observations of researchers are valuable in selecting a plant species for testing. The author also notes the importance of investigating species closely related to those plants that have medicinal properties and of random selection when selecting plant species.
