Microbial applications is a fascinating field of science and is increasingly regarded as a mainstream, central tenet of biology rather than just an interesting peripheral topic. The research into their applications is highly valued both by scientists and by politicians and industry professionals, who thrive upon the latest developments. Agricultural and food industry policy and practice is dependent on scientific updates, particularly in developing countries, and the information contained in this volume will offer new ideas for industrial production and usage. ?Biotechnological Applications of Microbes? is the second volume in our ?Microbiology Series'. It will be a welcome resource for microbiologists, botanists, food industry and agricultural scientists, postgraduate students and academics. Contents:Biotechnology ? An Overview * Microbial Community Structure and Function in the Rhizosphere * Glomalin: A Novel Proteinaceous Substance Produced by Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi * Microbes: Turning Them Into Allies * Plant Microbe Interaction: Molecular Basis * Phosphatase (s) from Microorganisms * Symbiotic Properties in Dual Inoculation of Rhizobia and AM Fungi for Enhancement of Pulse Production in North East Himalayan Region * Fungi in the Root Cortex of Direct-Seeded Wheat Fields with Chiseling or No Tillage * Siderophores: Their Biotechnological Applications * Microbial Production of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids * Engineering of Xylanolytic Organisms and Enzymes for Pulp and Paper Industries * Microbial Bioremediation of Persistent Chlorinated Aromatic Compounds in the Environment * Biotechnological Applications of White-Rot Fungi in Biodegradation of Various Pollutants * Bacteriocins from Lactic Acid Bacterial and Their Industrial Applications * Molecular Approaches to Study the Microbial Community Structure and Function in the RhizosphereVarma, A. is the author of 'Biotechnological Applications of Microbes ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781904798613 and ISBN 1904798616.
