The Combination of Untargeted Metabolomics and Machine Learning Predicts the Biosynthesis of Phenolic Compounds in <i>Bryophyllum</i> Medicinal Plants (Genus <i>Kalanchoe</i>)

Phenolic compounds constitute an important family of natural bioactive compounds responsible for the medicinal properties attributed to <i>Bryophyllum</i> plants (genus <i>Kalanchoe</i>, Crassulaceae), but their production by these medicinal plants has not been characterized...
