Industrial Importance and Greening Applications of Studied Pyrus L.Species in Greater Caucasus

This work investigates the medicinal, nutritional, and industrial significance of wild pear species in the context of their diverse applications across agriculture, food, and traditional medicine.With over 800 plant species exhibiting medicinal properties in the local flora, and more than half of medications derived from plants, the conservation of these species is critical.Wild pears are rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as antioxidants, flavonoids, and polyphenols, which contribute to their health benefits, including anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and wound healing properties.The industrial role of wild pears extends to food production, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetic applications.The study highlights their use in creating beverages, dietary supplements, and skin care products, demonstrating their versatility and economic potential.Experimental investigations using Wistar albino rats showed significant wound healing activity from Pyrus communis extracts, suggesting their promise as natural remedies in the pharmaceutical industry.theecological resilience of wild pears positions them as valuable resources for greening efforts, with potential applications in landscape architecture.This research underscores the need for further exploration of their pharmacological properties to validate medicinal uses and promote sustainable industrial practices.
