The genus Vetiveria is one of the most versatile genera in plant species. The species Vetiveria Zizanoides produces oderous roots from which a precious essential oil is distilled and used in a variety of applications from perfumery to ethnopharmacology. The same roots give the plant particular characteristics that make it a valuable natural barrier against erosion. Vetiveria: The Genus Vetiveria describes the anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, essential oil biogenesis and chemical composition, ethnopharmacology and distillation, as well as the production of plants for oil exploration and for the use of Vetiver as an ecological tool against erosion, flood, soil pollution and many other applications.
