Graphycal Abstract: Hydro-methanolic extracts of Bunium ferulaceum leaves, flowering heads, and tubers show organ-dependent phytochemical variation. Leaves are richest in phenolics and flavonoids, while tubers contain the highest triterpene levels. Polyphenol content correlates strongly with antibacterial activity, whereas triterpenes are tightly linked to anti-inflammatory effects. These complementary chemical–biological relationships highlight the plant’s multifunctional pharmacological potential, supporting further isolation and mechanistic studies.
