Abstract

Dud (Morus spp.) je brzorastuće listopadno stablo iz porodice Moraceae (dudovke) koje je
zbog svojih ekoloških zahtjeva dobro prilagođeno različitim klimatskim uvjetima. Postoje razne
vrste duda koje se uzgajaju u cijelom svijetu, najviše u područjima umjerenog pojasa.
Pregledom literature izdvojene su bitne značajke i važnosti duda kao same voćne kulture,
njegov pozitivan utjecaj na okoliš, zdravlje ljudi te utjecaj na osnaživanje gospodarstva i
iskoristivost u industriji. Dud se kao voćna vrsta od davnina uzgaja radi svojih sočnih plodova
koji se mogu konzumirati u svježem stanju ili za preradu. Sve više se iskorištava kao biljka koja
ima pozitivan utjecaj na očuvanje okoliša, putem smanjena erozije, fitoremedijacije tala i
sekvestracije štetnih plinova. Istraživanjima je dokazana ljekovitost njegovih biljnih dijelova u
kojima su utvrđene određene farmakološke sastavnice. Kineska farmakopeja od davnina ga
koristi u svrhe liječenja i prevencije. Lišće Morus albe (bijeli dud) koristi se za prehranu Bombyx
mori (dudova svilca) koji lučenjem spojeva iz svojih svilenih žlijezdi stvara tanke niti svile.
Prehrambena industrija iskorištava ga u svrhu pripreme raznih sokova, alkoholnih pića, slatkih
namaza i ostaloga. Dud se može iskorištavati i u stočarstvu kao dopunska hrana za životinje.
Iskoristivi su gotovo svi biljni dijelovi duda zbog čega se može reći da se smatra prikladnom
biljkom za održivi razvoj.

Abstract (english)

Mulberry (Morus spp.) is a fast-growing deciduous tree in the Moraceae family that is well
adapted to different climatic conditions due to its ecological requirements. There are several
species of mulberry grown around the world, mostly in temperate zones. Review of the
literature highlighted the main characteristics and importance of mulberry as a fruit crop itself,
its positive impact on the environment and human health, as well as its impact on
strengthening the economy and use in industry. As a fruit species, mulberry has been
cultivated since ancient times for its juicy fruit that can be eaten fresh or processed. It is
increasingly used as a plant that has a positive effect on environmental protection by reducing
erosion, rehabilitating the soil through planting, and binding harmful gasses. Research has
proven the medicinal properties of its plant parts, in which certain pharmacological
components have been found. In Chinese pharmacopeia, it has been used since ancient times
for treatment and prevention. The leaves of Morus alba (white mulberry) are used as fodder
for Bombyx mori (silk mulberry), which produces thin silk threads by secreting compounds
from its silk glands. The food industry uses it to prepare various juices, alcoholic beverages,
sweet spreads, and other items. Mulberry can also be used in animal husbandry as a
supplementary feed for animals. Almost all parts of the mulberry plant are usable, so it can be
said that it is considered a suitable plant for sustainable development.
