dc.description.abstractTerpenoid is the naturally occurring compound synthesized from isoprene units. Terpenoid plays a variety of functions in the growth and development of plants. Most of the terpenoid perform chemical communications and defense function in both biotic and abiotic environment. Terpenoid is classified into different groups such as monoterpene, diterpene, a sesquiterpene, triterpene, tetraterpene, and polyterpene. Terpenoids are reported for their excellent anti-platelet aggregation and anticancer activity. They regulate cellular signaling pathway, cell cycle phases and induce apoptosis. In this chapter, we mainly focused on the different class of the terpenoid, function and their biosynthesis in the plant system. ? 2018 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.en_US
