Economical and effortless Medium for the isolation and growth of fungi.
Scientific Study from the year 2013 in the subject Biology - Micro- and Molecular Biology, Junagadh Agricultural University (Department of biotechnology), language: English, abstract: For a long time used many growth media like Potato Dextroxe agar, Capazedx agar, Rose Bengal agar for the isolation and identification of various type of fungi like Aspergillus, Penicillium, Tricoderma etc. but the preparation of above said medium procedure is very lengthy and the components are used in this medium is so coastally except Potato Dextroxe agar (PDA). the PDA medium widely used for the isolation of fungi because it is easy to prepare and cheap ingredients. But another medium Tomato agar we prepared is more easy to prepare than PDA and more Cheap than the PDA. The growth pattern of fungi on Tomato Agar compare to Growth pattern of fungi on PDA was not significantly difference so the tomato agar medium will be used for isolation of fungi alternate PDA which is cheap medium for the isolation of fungi and may widely used in research laboratories.
Microbial Bioremediation and Multiomics Technologies for Sustainable Development
This book brings together the recent advances in the area of microbial bioremediation with a particular focus on the exciting new field of multiomics technologies.
Climate-Resilient Agriculture, Vol 1
Under ongoing climate change, natural and cultivated habitats of major food crops are being continuously disturbed. Such condition accelerates to impose stress effects like abiotic and biotic stressors. Drought, salinity, flood, cold, heat, heavy metals, metalloids, oxidants, irradiation etc. are important abiotic stresses; and diseases and infections caused by plant pathogens viz. fungal agents, bacteria and viruses are major biotic stresses. As a result, these harsh environments affect crop productivity and its biology in multiple complex paradigms. As stresses become the limiting factors for agricultural productivity and exert detrimental role on growth and yield of the crops, scientists ...
The Castor Bean Genome
This book addresses various aspects of the current castor bean research, including genetics, biotechnology, comparative genomics, and more specific topics such as oil metabolism and the ricin toxin. It also presents the whole genome sequencing of the castor bean and its impact on the mining of gene families and future plant breeding. Castor bean (Ricinus communis), an oilseed plant, belongs to the Euphorbiaceae (spurge) family. It is a tropical and subtropical crop valued for the high quality and uniform nature of its oil, which is mostly composed of the uncommon fatty acid ricinoleate. Castor bean oil has important industrial applications for the production of lubricants, cosmetics, medicines, and specialty chemicals, and castor bean has also been proposed as a biodiesel crop that does not pose concerns regarding the “food versus fuel” debate. However, it accumulates the type 2 ribosome-inactivating protein ricin in its seeds, and health concerns posed by ricin’s high toxicity have prevented broader cultivation. Recently, there has been renewed interest in castor bean due to potential biosecurity issues.
Genomics Data Analysis for Crop Improvement

Microbial Inoculants in Sustainable Agricultural Productivity
How to achieve sustainable agricultural production without compromising environmental quality, agro-ecosystem function and biodiversity is a serious consideration in current agricultural practices. Farming systems’ growing dependency on chemical inputs (fertilizers, pesticides, nutrients etc.) poses serious threats with regard to crop productivity, soil fertility, the nutritional value of farm produce, management of pests and diseases, agro-ecosystem well-being, and health issues for humans and animals. At the same time, microbial inoculants in the form of biofertilizers, plant growth promoters, biopesticides, soil health managers, etc. have gained considerable attention among researchers,...
Research Anthology on Bioinformatics, Genomics, and Computational Biology
In the evolving environment of bioinformatics, genomics, and computational biology, academic scholars are facing a challenging challenge – keeping informed about the latest research trends and findings. With unprecedented advancements in sequencing technologies, computational algorithms, and machine learning, these fields have become indispensable tools for drug discovery, disease research, genome sequencing, and more. As scholars strive to decode the language of DNA, predict protein structures, and navigate the complexities of biological data analysis, the need for a comprehensive and up-to-date resource becomes paramount. The Research Anthology on Bioinformatics, Genomics, and Computatio...
Accelerated Plant Breeding, Volume 4
Plant improvement has shifted its focus from yield, quality and disease resistance to factors that will enhance commercial export, such as early maturity, shelf life and better processing quality. Conventional plant breeding methods aiming at the improvement of a self-pollinating crop usually take 10-12 years to develop and release of the new variety. During the past 10 years, significant advances have been made and accelerated methods have been developed for precision breeding and early release of crop varieties. This book focuses on the accelerated breeding technologies that have been adopted for major oil crops. It summarizes concepts dealing with germplasm enhancement and development of improved varieties based on innovative methodologies that include doubled haploidy, marker assisted selection, marker assisted background selection, genetic mapping, genomic selection, high-throughput genotyping, high-throughput phenotyping, mutation breeding, reverse breeding, transgenic breeding, shuttle breeding, speed breeding, low cost high-throughput field phenotyping, etc. This edited volume is therefore an excellent reference on accelerated development of improved crop varieties.
Heat Stress Tolerance in Plants
Demystifies the genetic, biochemical, physiological, and molecular mechanisms underlying heat stress tolerance in plants Heat stress—when high temperatures cause irreversible damage to plant function or development—severely impairs the growth and yield of agriculturally important crops. As the global population mounts and temperatures continue to rise, it is crucial to understand the biochemical, physiological, and molecular mechanisms of thermotolerance to develop ‘climate-smart’ crops. Heat Stress Tolerance in Plants provides a holistic, cross-disciplinary survey of the latest science in this important field. Presenting contributions from an international team of plant scientists a...
Molecular Plant Breeding and Genome Editing Tools for Crop Improvement
Plant breeders have used mutagenic agents to create variability for their use in crop improvement. However, application of mutagenic agents has its own drawbacks, such as non-specificity and random nature, simultaneous effect on large numbers of genes, and induction of chromosomal aberrations. To overcome these limitations, several genome editing systems have been developed with the aid of cutting-edge technology rooted in the expertise of several research fields. Molecular Plant Breeding and Genome Editing Tools for Crop Improvement is a pivotal reference source that provides an interdisciplinary approach to crop breeding through genetics. Featuring coverage of a broad range of topics including software, molecular markers, and plant variety identification, this book is ideally designed for agriculturalists, biologists, engineers, advocates, policymakers, researchers, academicians, and students.
