Agricultural Biotechnology

This new volume highlights the latest strides made in the fields of agricultural biotechnology, encompassing topics from molecular biology, genetic engineering, proteomics, molecular docking, and drug delivery. The book reports on biotechnological methods to improve plant tolerance to such stresses as waterlogging and drought. It discusses ways to enhance signaling and regulatory pathways between plants and microbial communities and considers agroecosystem diversity and how it affects maintenance of soil and environmental health. Recent advances in the use of bionanotechnology for bioremediation are described, such as the use of nanobiosensors to detect environmental pollution. A range of other technological applications for solutions to environmental pollution are also reviewed.
