ABOUT THE BOOK
The book titled ‘Newer
Approaches to Biotechnology’ is expected to solve many emerging problems
arising at local and global levels. This volume incorporates sixteen seminal
papers on issue based research and their practical applications covering latest
information and progress on different area of biotechnological research. The
book highlights the burning issues and applications in biotechnology with wide
coverage of the themes like Industrial Application of Enzymes for Environment
safety, Metabolomics and Proteomics Approaches to Understanding Host–Pathogen
interaction, Genetic diversity and Prospective of Under-utilized food crops,
Plant Tissue Culture and Transgenic, Protein Synthesis and Processing to Abiotic
Stress Tolerance for Sustainable Agriculture including Drug discovery and Receptor
Targeting. This book will be very useful for the scholars, biotechnologists,
agricultural scientists, medical doctors, researchers, teachers and students
in the field of biotechnology.
