Abstract
The tree-like plants of the genus Tamarix belong to the Tamaricaceae family and predominantly grow in subtropical areas, steppes, and saline soils. These plants exhibit various pharmacological properties, including antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial characteristics. The current flora of Kazakhstan also includes 13 Tamarix species. Despite the diversity of the Tamarix taxon, the species discovered in the region have received limited investigation. Therefore, this review analyzed Kazakhstan and international-related scientific studies concerning the morphological, phytochemical, and pharmacological properties of 13 species within the Tamarix genus. The plants’ biological features and potential applications were also comprehensively analyzed. Consequently, this review significantly contributed to botanical science and practical pharmacology. Conservation and sustainable employment of the Tamarix species for medical purposes could also be developed.
