A Review of Dendrophthoe pentandra (Mistletoe):Phytomorphology, Extraction Techniques, Phytochemicals, and Biological Activities

Dendrophtoe pentandra, popularly known as mistletoe, is a semi-parasitic plant that can grow on many host plants and is native to Southeast Asia, especially Malaysia. D. pentandra is regarded as an unfavourable plant for an economically significant horticultural plant; however, D. pentandra is also...
