There are pressing demands on the biodiversity and bioresources of Western Ghats and Chlorophytum is one of the highly demanded medicinal entities, as Chlorophytum has export value and there is a vast demand for its roots under the trade name ‘Safed Musali’. The roots of various species are collected from nature. Even all the species of Chlorophytum are not studied properly for taxonomy, morphology, medicinal value and antioxidant contents. The present review proposes a comprehensive impression of phytogeographical survey, morphological, genetic and phytochemical diversity, medicinal properties and uses, field studies and breeding practices of genus Chlorophytum. Conclusively, the anticipated article is an endeavour to provide a complete update of several studies led by members of the genus Chlorophytum that will possibly be utilized systematically and appropriately in different conservation strategies and sustainable development.
