The management of crop diseases has become important throughout the world. Various methods have been advocated to manage viral. bacterial fungal and nematode diseases of various crops. The emphasis and prime importance is given on the development of resistant varieties and now it has been possible to manage the various diseases in integrated manner. But the failure of resistant gene in a variety sometimes has been observed and hence the scientists are busy to manage the diseases in biotechnological manners. The biotechnology and molecular biology has found to be of great help and developing transgenic varieties in addition to regular hybridizations. The volume on biotechnological approaches for the integrated management of crop diseases will be great help to solve the problems of crop disease management. The volume consists of 26 review articles on biotechnological approaches by very well known international scientists throughout the India on different crops. Almost all the renowned institutes of ICAR IARI ICRISAT and other universities have contributed to make this.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Fungi are omnipresent and cosmopolitan in distribution. Fungi are the second species-rich organisms group after Insects. Fungi play an important role in decomposition, industry, agriculture, medicine, biotechnology and many other related aspects of human welfare. 13 million fungi have been in the world. Today around 140,000 fungal species are reported in the world, while in India only 30000 fungal species are reported. This is more challenging task to compile the fungal inventory as compared other organisms such as plants. Moreover, there is no red data book on fungi in India. Keeping in view the above aspects diversity, conservation and utilization aspects of fungi have much greater important. The fungal flora of India is rich and diverse. One-third of the global biodiversity of fungi occur in India. The problems faced by the researchers are enormous due to the non-availability of complete data on the reported fungi from India. Hence, it has become important in bringing out up to date list of fungi reported from India. It has also become a necessity for fungal taxonomists. Therefore, the listing of Indian Fungi is important. Earlier, Late Prof. K. S. Bilgrami and his colleagues had taken much of effort to bring out the volumes of Fungi of India, wherein they had mentioned about the name of the fungus, collection place, date/ year etc. along with its related references. The present revision of "Fungi of India" Part I includes fungi reported from 1979 to 1988 and Part II includes enlisting fungi from 1988-2020, with their complete data with 1051 references.

Glossary. Selected References. Fungi and microbes have predominant influence in our lives. They are directly or indirectly involved in generating the food we eat and drink, besides providing life saving pharmaceutical products, including the sources of enzymes. They play a vital role in recycling of organic matter and several ecological processes. Both fungi and microbes have contributed several billion dollars worth of technological products. For instance: yeast is used in brewing and bakery, Lactobacillus ferments milk to yoghurt and a number of edible mushrooms are rich in nutrients besides possessing many medicinal properties. Bacteria and fungi serve as key organisms in understanding life processes, genetic engineering and as experimental organisms. Therefore, it is necessary to study the biology and biotechnology of these organisms. It is a humble attempt of the authors to make the readers understand the biology and biotechnology of fungi and microbes in a simpler way and also to communicate the recent developments. (jacket).

The continuous exploitation and deterioration of the environment has been recognised worldwide and every country is making efforts in restoring the environment. In our country the Hon. Supreme Court has directed the University Grants Commission (UGC) to introduce a basic course on environment for all undergraduate students. Accordingly UGC framed a six months core module syllabus to be compulsorily implemented by all universities. This book while covering the module syllabus has expanded the scope by including subjects like Environmental Economics Valuation and Management of environment sustainable resource development regional and sectorial issues urban agro forestry and river basin environmental issues. 306 pp.
