Abstract
The generation of environmental changes, as well as the implementation of agricultural and cultural practices, induces a large number of problems related to abiotic or biotic stress in plants, which produce not only negative, also positive effects, since the plant uses its engineering mechanical, biochemical and molecular to defend its integrity. In this sense, various primary and secondary metabolites are produced under these conditions of stress, and among the secondary ones, phenolic compounds are the most synthesized. These compounds are considered one of the most important and diverse groups in plants, mainly due to their structural characteristics that provide important antioxidant activity. Antioxidants have the ability to neutralize reactive oxygen species; likewise, this defense mechanism can be used to consider plants as biofactories of phenolic compounds with a possible potential in health. In addition, the increase in the content of phenolic compounds could be manipulated depending on the plant, through its exposure to stress conditions.
