As leguminosas do gênero Crotalaria são nativas da Índia, com ampla adaptação às regiões tropicais do mundo. O nome Crotalaria refere-se ao chocalho das vagens secas, semelhante ao da cobra cascavel (Crotalus sp.). São arbustos de crescimento ereto e determinado e seu principal emprego é a adubação verde. Além disso, também podem ser usadas como plantas-armadilhas em solos infestados por nematóides e em regiões endêmicas da Dengue, na fixação do nitrogênio em sistemas de cultivo rotativo e na indústria de papel e fibras. Apesar da grande toxicidade de suas sementes, devido a presença de alcalóides pirrolizidínicos, inibidores de proteases e outros compostos, muitas moléculas têm sido isoladas e purificadas e seus potenciais de aplicação estudados. Diversos extratos de algumas espécies de Crotalaria foram ensaiados contra bactérias, insetos e parasitos e os resultados foram bastante promissores. Este trabalho tem como objetivo compilar estes resultados e discutir as possíveis aplicações biotecnológicas da Crotalaria.
