Microbial Genomics in Sustainable Agroecosystems
Today, microbiology is a rapidly growing discipline in the life sciences, and the technologies are evolving on a virtually daily basis. Next-generation sequencing technologies have revolutionized microbial analysis, and can help us understand the biology and genomic diversity of various bacterial species with significant impacts on agro-ecosystems. In addition, advances in molecular biology and microbiology techniques hold the potential to improve the productivity and sustainability of agriculture and forestry. This new volume addresses the role of microbial genomics in understanding the living systems that exist in the soil and their interactions with plants, an aspect that is also important for crop improvement. The topics covered focus on a deeper and clearer understanding of how microbes cause diseases, the genome-based development of novel antibacterial agents and vaccines, and the role of microbial genomics in crop improvement and agroforestry. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable resource for researchers and students of agriculture and infectious biology.
Microbial Bioprocesses
Microbial processes are involved in food, chemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, energy, and new-material industries. Over the past 2 decades, new or more efficient industrial processes involving microorganisms have been launched, yielding purer, less expensive products or substances not available using classical chemical methods. Microbial Bioprocesses aims to give an overview of established and successful processes and discusses the trends and perspectives in industrial microbiology which, along with tremendous progress in genetic and metabolic engineering in recent years, are once again becoming an area of innovation and emerging technologies. Microbial Bioprocesses covers the unique areas like microbial volatiles (MVOCs), microbial bioinoculant development, bacterial nanocelluloses production, and processes for remediation by fungi and actinobacteria. Provides an innovative description of emerging bioprocesses for biotechnological gains Provides a broad cross section of microbial bioprocess that covers several sustainability applications Gives general insights about how microorganisms can be utilized in production of various chemicals
Rise of the Soul-Transferors
A twenty-four-year-old Aditi Mukherjee realizes that through deep meditation she is able to transfer her soul into the body of any other person in her proximity for a limited amount of time. Her friends Nura and Cyrus help her to use her abilities to eliminate crime and corruption. Along the way she also has to deal with moral and ethical questions regarding the use of her powers. Meanwhile, in Mumbai, Robin Pinto’s car collides with another vehicle. After the collision Robin finds himself in the body of a nearby beggar and discovers the corpses of his family and himself near the crashed car. Days later, he gets reason to believe that the collision was no accident. He must find out the one responsible for his family’s death while dealing with the curse of constantly switching from the body of one person to another, with no body of his own. Millennia before these events Shri Adi Shankaracharya, learns to exercise similar soul-transfer powers. But what connects these three?
Perspectives in Environmental Toxicology
This book is a valuable contribution to the debate about the harmful effects of environmental toxicants on human health, which is a growing concern in the 21st century. Complementary chapters decipher the phenomena and highlight the latest developments in environmental toxicology, providing readers with a comprehensive overview of environmental toxicology and human health. Since the toxicants in question are not only chemical or biological in nature, but also include man-made electromagnetic fields, the book explores in detail multidisciplinary approaches to environmental toxicology, with a focus on the following five aspects: 1. The effects of man-made electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) on hum...
The Shambala Sutras
Set to find out the mythological Sanjeevani plant of the Ramayana, botanist Arjun and chef Lisa were circumstantially clubbed in an unlikely team that travelled from New York to the Western Himalayas in search of the truth. The series of revelations they stumbled upon was beyond their wildest imagination. Unwittingly, they were on their way to a mystical place that was rumoured, for centuries, to be the epitome of ultimate knowledge, power and wealth. Pitched against a global antagonistic force and a multitude of challenges, they pushed forward through the perils of the snowy Himalayas. They had to reach the magical place to receive the Sutras of life and a fore-warning of the biggest catastrophe in the 21st century that would be unfolding in a few months.
Bacterial Endophytes for Sustainable Agriculture and Environmental Management
This book is a comprehensive account of recent advances in the endophytic research. It covers recent perspective of endophytic research, molecular diversity, bioprospecting of novel genes using high throughput molecular techniques, and most importantly application of endophytes in practicing sustainable agriculture. Endophytic micro-organisms are mysterious living component associated mutually with plant roots and soil microbes. Various endophytic bacteria have attracted considerable attention for their ability to promote plant growth through direct mechanisms or by acting as biocontrol agents. Endophytes also find use in biocontrol, medicine, agriculture and food industry. This is a useful reading for the student of agriculture, environmental microbiology and biotechnology.
The Other India
This book engages with critical issues which create a proper understanding of how identities and belonging are imagined and constructed in postcolonial India. The contributors have examined various texts and movies to discuss the implicit communal nature of postcolonial India. The book attempts to discuss the different ways in which India is badly plagued by communal politics and terrorism, and to offer a cogent alternative for creating a strong solidarity among different communities in India.
Advances in Computing and Data Sciences
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Advances in Computing and Data Sciences, ICACDS 2016, held in Ghaziabad, India, in November 2016. The 64 full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 502 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Advanced Computing; Communications; Informatics; Internet of Things; Data Sciences.
