This family contains 70-80 rhizomatous annual or perennial herbs species (Kaliyadasa and Samarasinghe, 2019). The genus originated in the Indo-Malayan region and is now found throughout Asia's tropics, as well as in Africa and Australia (Sasikumar, 2005).

Mango ginger is the common name for Curcuma amada Roxb. It is a perennial, rhizomatous, aromatic herb in the Zingiberaceae family. This family contains 70-80 rhizomatous annual or perennial herbs species (Kaliyadasa and Samarasinghe, 2019). The genus originated in the Indo-Malayan region and is now found throughout Asia's tropics, as well as in Africa and Australia (Sasikumar, 2005). It is a functionally sterile monocotyledonous triploid (2n = 3 = 63) plant. Rhizomes are the only source of planting material in this crop because no sexually derived seeds are produced. The pseudo stem is tall and robust, with oblonga-elliptical leaves that are narrowed at the base with long, oblong, lanceolate, radical, sheathed, petiolate and tufted leaves. Each plant has 5 to 6 leaf pairs. Plant height can reach 1 m, with 8-10 leaves, an apical spike(length ranges from 10 to 18 cm) of pale-yellow flowers and starting root tubers produced at the end of fibrous roots. The antioxidant activity of anaqueous methanol extract of C. amada leaves and rhizomes was determined using the -carotene bleaching method (Sutar et al. 2020). Leaf extract outperformed rhizome extract in terms of activity.
