This book is dedicated to and intended for students in the Faculty of Natural and Life Sciences, but it is also a useful resource for non-specialists in the fields of ecology and the environment. The aim is to provide those interested in environmental protection with key information on the concept of plant biodiversity, the origins of this diversity, its importance for the ecological balance on a global scale, and the ecological value of this diversity. Given its importance, this diversity is exposed to several threats, which vary from one area to another, and humanity faces a major challenge in conserving existing resources and restoring areas degraded by irrational exploitation.
