FUNGI BIO-PROSPECTS IN SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE, ENVIRONMENT AND NANO-TECHNOLOGY: Volume 1: Fungal Diversity of Sustainable Agriculture

Fungi Bio-prospects of Microbial Activities in Agriculture, Environment and Nanotechnology: Volume One: Fungal Diversity of Sustainable Agriculture explores varied aspects of fungal biology with relevance in microbiology and agriculture for better insights of basic and advanced biotechnological application in human welfare and sustainable agriculture. Chapters have been included to throw light on different sectors of fungi including diversity analysis, role as bio fertilizer, biocontrol agent, and microbial inoculants, nano-technological application, and exploitation for management of drought, salinity and metal toxicity. This book was designed to help users explore the possibility of huge fungal diversity for present and future generations in different sectors of human life. Summarizes various aspects of fungi in the field of microbiology, sustainable agriculture, nano-technology and environmentDescribes the molecular approaches and gene expression of fungiProvides a deeper understanding of fungi that could be articulated in various fields INDICE: 1.
