Functional Metagenomics: Microbial Diversity, Interaction, and Application in Bioremediation

Functional Metagenomics: Microbial Diversity, Interaction, and Application in Bioremediation uses a 20-chapter, easy-to-understand format to centralize the practical application ideas for functional metagenomics. This important resource not only includes chapters on next-generation sequencing technologies to study important biogeochemical cycles, degradation pathways and detoxification, but also gives insight into several tools that have been developed to integrate metadata and sequence data, allowing downstream comparative analyses of different datasets using several ecological indices. The book's content further explains newly developed techniques for sequencing DNA, generating shorter fragments than Sanger sequencing techniques to quickly read larger sequences in a shorter amount of time. The content finally explores the role of metagenomics in studying microbial diversity, interaction, and application in bioremediation studies and gives the reader overall detailed information regarding metagenomics and its application and techniques. Provides comprehensive information to readers on state-of-the-art applications in metagenomicsSummarizes our current knowledge of the use of metagenomics and gives a novel and powerful insight into the already existing bioremediation processGives an overall picture of metagenomics, its application, processes, and future prospects in the field of bioremediation INDICE: Overcoming industrial challenges in microbial bioremediation: Leveraging modern technologies and sustainable practicesMetagenomics: A new horizon for bioremediation in 21st centuryApplications of metagenomics in the field of biotechnological conversion of lignocellulosic residuesMetagenomics to unravel the microbial biodiversity and biotechnological potential of extreme high salinity environmentsAnalysis of complex microbial communities in soil and wastewater treatment processesResponse of microbial communities to environmental changesGene prediction through metagenomicsRole of microbes in climate change and its impact: A critical reviewMetagenomics approaches for microbiome analysisStudy of microbial communities in degrading toxic pollutants in the wastewater and solid waste treatment industries
