The Biological Activity of Phytochemicals
This 41st volume of RAP includes a total of twelve articles, all based on talks presented at the 49th annual meeting of the PSNA. These eight Perspectives and four Communications give a very good picture of the state of plant (bio)chemistry research in No

Preface
The publication of this volume marks the reintroduction of the Recent Advances in Phytochemistry (RAP) series, an annual journal supported by the Phytochemical Society of North America. In the past, RAP was a proceedings book representing the focus of the PSNA annual meeting, and production of the annual RAP volume was largely the responsibility of an editor in chief with the assistance of the local organizing committee of the annual Society meeting. Recent years have brought significant changes to biological science in general and phytochemically related fields in particular. As a result, the annual meetings of the PSNA are no longer centered on a single theme, but rather represent the most interesting advances and newest technologies developed by the membership of the Society in the broadest sense. The meetings are now organized to be of interest to all members of the Society, whether they study the biosynthesis of natural products or regulation of metabolism, the ecology of specialized metabolites or
