Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mycology, the study of fungi, originated as a subdiscipline of botany and was a descrip tive discipline, largely neglected as an experimental science until the early years of this century. A seminal paper by Blakeslee in 1904 provided evidence for self incompatibility, termed "heterothallism", and stimulated interest in studies related to the control of sexual reproduction in fungi by mating-type specificities. Soon to follow was the demonstration that sexually reproducing fungi exhibit Mendelian inheritance and that it was possible to conduct formal genetic analysis with fungi. The names Burgeff, Kniep and Lindegren are all associated with this early period of fungal genetics research. These studies and the discovery of penicillin by Fleming, who shared a Nobel Prize in 1945, provided further impetus for experimental research with fungi. Thus began a period of interest in mutation induction and analysis of mutants for biochemical traits. Such fundamental research, conducted largely with Neurospora crassa, led to the one gene: one enzyme hypothesis and to a second Nobel Prize for fungal research awarded to Beadle and Tatum in 1958. Fundamental research in biochemical genetics was extended to other fungi, especially to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and by the mid-1960s fungal systems were much favored for studies in eukaryotic molecular biology and were soon able to compete with bacterial systems in the molecular arena.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enzyme Technology is one the most promising disciplines in modern biotechnology. In this book, the applications of a wide variety of enzymes are highlighted. Current studies in enzyme technology are focused towards the discovery of novel enzymes (termed “bio-discovery” or “bio-prospecting”) and the identification and elucidation of novel pathways of these novel enzymes with emphasis on their industrial relevance. With the development of molecular techniques and other bioinformatics tools, the time to integrate this subject with other fields in the life sciences has arrived. A rapid expansion of the knowledge base in the field of enzyme biotechnology has occurred over the past few years. Much of this expansion has been driven by the bio-discovery of many new enzymes from a wide range of environments, some extreme in nature, followed by subsequent protein (enzyme) engineering. These enzymes have found a wide range of applications, ranging from bioremediation, bio-monitoring, biosensor development, bioconversion to biofuels and other biotechnologically important value-added products. Hydrolases constitute a major component of the global annual revenue generated by industrial enzymes and the emphasis has therefore been placed on these enzymes and their applications. With the immense interest of researchers active in this area, this book will serve to provide information on current aspects in this field of study. In the current edition, the contributions of many diversified topics towards establishing new directions of research in the area of enzyme biotechnology are described. This book serves to provide a unique source of information to undergraduates, post graduates and doctoral courses in microbiology and biotechnology along with allied life sciences. The present edition of the book covers all important areas of enzyme biotechnology i.e. the wide variety of enzymes in the field of enzyme biotechnology and their industrial applications, new methods and state-of-the-art information on modern methods of enzyme discovery. This book will act as good resource on most of the current facets of enzyme technology for all students engaged in bioengineering and biotechnology.

Book excerpt: Microbiology, the scientific study of microorganisms, has significantly advanced our understanding of the invisible world that teems with bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microscopic life forms. While modern microbiology has made remarkable strides in unraveling the mysteries of these tiny organisms, it is essential not to overlook the profound importance of traditional knowledge in this field. In India, a nation with a rich cultural heritage dating back millennia, traditional knowledge has played a pivotal role in shaping the understanding of microbes and their applications. This knowledge, often passed down through generations, has coexisted with modern scientific discoveries, making it a unique and indispensable facet of microbiology. The importance of traditional knowledge in microbiology is rooted in its historical significance and cultural relevance. India's ancient texts and practices, such as Ayurveda and traditional herbal medicine, have long recognized the existence of microorganisms and their influence on health and disease. These insights have not only laid the foundation for contemporary research but have also offered valuable guidance in the development of antibiotics, vaccines, and probiotics. 'Microbial Mysteries of India: India's Rich Legacy in Microbiology' explores the scope and objectives of this book, which endeavors to bridge the gap between traditional wisdom and modern scientific understanding. This comprehensive work aims to unearth the hidden treasures of microbial knowledge scattered across India's diverse landscape. It delves into the historical context of Indian microbiology, shedding light on the contributions of ancient scholars, sages, and healers who recognized the significance of microbes long before the advent of modern microbiology. Throughout the book, readers will embark on a captivating journey that spans the length and breadth of India, unraveling microbial mysteries hidden within its ancient traditions, folklore, and indigenous practices. From the fermentation techniques used in traditional Indian cuisine to the microbial diversity found in sacred rivers and forests, this book brings to life the vibrant tapestry of India's microbial heritage. It also explores the contemporary relevance of this knowledge in fields such as agriculture, medicine, and environmental conservation, showcasing how traditional wisdom can complement and enhance modern scientific endeavors. 'Microbial Mysteries of India' seeks to bridge the gap between the past and the present, celebrating the enduring legacy of traditional knowledge in microbiology. As we embark on this enlightening journey, we will come to appreciate the invaluable insights that India's rich heritage offers to the world of microbes and the immense potential it holds for the future of microbiological research and innovation.
