Climate change profoundly impacts underutilized fruit crops, altering critical phenological stages (flowering, fruiting, ripening) and affecting yield, quality, and nutrition. Extreme weather events exacerbate risks (water stress, pests, diseases). Despite challenges, these crops exhibit genetic diversity and resilience. Innovative breeding (marker-assisted selection, genomic editing) can develop climateresilient varieties. Sustainable practices (agroforestry, conservation tillage, integrated pest management) enhance resilience. Empowering local communities and conserving genetic resources unlock opportunities for nutritional security and livelihood enhancement.

“…Elaeocapus sphaericus , often known as rudraksha, is a well‐known medicinal plant in the Indian traditional medical system due to its many therapeutic benefits. Different plant parts, such as those with antibacterial, sedative, antihypertensive, and anti‐inflammatory characteristics, are essential in treating many disorders [9–16] . E. sphaericus products help cure bronchitis, neuralgia, cephalagia, anorexia, headache, and are used as epileptic, analgesic, sedative, anti‐depressant, anti‐asthmatic, hypoglycemic, antihypertensive, smooth muscle relaxant, hydrocholeretic, anti‐ulcerogenic and anticonvulsant [17,12,14] .…”

The study presents antioxidant, phytochemical, anti‐proliferative, and gene repression activities against Hypoxia‐inducible factor (HIF‐1) alpha and Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) of Elaeocarpus sphaericus extract. Elaeocarpus sphaericus dried and crushed plant leaves were extracted using water and methanol by ASE (Accelerated Solvent Extraction) method. Total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) were used to measure the extracts′ phytochemical activity (TFC). Antioxidant potential of the extracts was measured through DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, and TRP. Methanolic extract of the leaves of E. sphaericus has shown a higher amount of TPC (94.666±4.040 mg/gm GAE) and TFC value (172.33±3.21 mg/gm RE). The antioxidant properties of extracts in the yeast model (Drug Rescue assay) showed promising results. Ascorbic acid, gallic acid, hesperidin, and quercetin were found in the aqueous and methanolic extracts of E. sphaericus at varying amounts, according to a densiometric chromatogram generated by HPTLC analysis. Methanolic extract of E. sphaericus (10 mg/ml) has shown good antimicrobial potential against all bacterial strains used in the study except E. coli. The anticancer activity of the extract in HeLa cell lines ranged from 77.94±1.03 % to 66.85±1.95 %, while it ranged from 52.83±2.57 % to 5.44 % in Vero cell lines at varying concentration (1000 μg/ml–31.2 μg/ml). A promising effect of extract was observed on the expression activity of HIF‐1 and VEGF gene through RT‐PCR assay.

The Australian Wet Tropics World Heritage Area (WTWHA) in northeast Queensland is home to approximately 18 percent of the nation’s total vascular plant species. Over the past century, human activity and industrial development have caused global climate changes, posing a severe and irreversible danger to the entire land-based ecosystem, and the WTWHA is no exception. The current average annual temperature of WTWHA in northeast Queensland is 24 °C. However, in the coming years (by 2030), the average annual temperature increase is estimated to be between 0.5 and 1.4 °C compared to the climate observed between 1986 and 2005. Looking further ahead to 2070, the anticipated temperature rise is projected to be between 1.0 and 3.2 °C, with the exact range depending on future emissions. We identified 84 plant species, endemic to tropical montane cloud forests (TMCF) within the WTWHA, which are already experiencing climate change threats. Some of these plants are used in herbal medicines. This study comprehensively reviewed the metabolomics studies conducted on these 84 plant species until now toward understanding their physiological and metabolomics responses to global climate change. This review also discusses the following: (i) recent developments in plant metabolomics studies that can be applied to study and better understand the interactions of wet tropics plants with climatic stress, (ii) medicinal plants and isolated phytochemicals with structural diversity, and (iii) reported biological activities of crude extracts and isolated compounds.
