| dc.description.abstract | American pokeweed (Phytolacca americana L.) is a perennial plant belonging to the Phytolaccaceae family. The plants are showy, can exceed 2 m in height, and have a characteristic reddish discolouration of the stems and other organs. Due to its unique properties, P. americana has found many applications in biotechnology, medicine and various industries. It is native to North America, but has already occurred in Asia and Europe. In 2013, it was recorded in Poland and is already known from many sites. The aim of this paper is to show the main research topics related to this species, selected on the basis of scientific articles from SCOPUS and Web of Science databases. Due to easier access to the plant in Poland and Europe, it may become a subject of increased scientific interest and such an overview may facilitate the design of new research topics and the establishment of collaborations. The material covered 209 articles and is divided into chapters on the active substances of P. americana, the possibilities of its use in medicine, the physiology and ecology of the plant, the importance for agriculture, as well as issues outside this field. | |
