Springer Verlag, Singapore Arbuscular Mycorrhizas and Stress Tolerance of
Book SynopsisThis book reviews the potential mechanisms in arbuscular mycorrhizas (AMs), in the hope that this can help arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) to be more used efficiently as a biostimulant to enhance stress tolerance in the host plants. AMF, as well as plants, are often exposed to all or many of the abiotic and biotic stresses, including extreme temperatures, pH, drought, water-logging, toxic metals and soil pathogens. Studies have indicated a quick response to these stresses involving several mechanisms, such as root morphological modification, reactive oxygen species change, osmotic adjustment, direct absorption of water by extraradical hyphae, up-regulated expression of relevant stressed genes, glomalin-related soil protein release, etc. The underlying complex, multi-dimensional strategy is involved in morphological, physiological, biochemical, and molecular processes. The AMF responses are often associated with homeostatic regulation of the internal and external environment, and are therefore critical for plant health, survival and restoration in native ecosystems and good soil structure.Table of ContentsChapter 1 Arbuscular Mycorrhizas: An Overview.- Chapter 2 Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Tolerance of Drought Stress in Plants.- Chapter 3 Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Tolerance of Waterlogging Stress in Plants.- Chapter 4 Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Tolerance of Salt Stress in Plants.- Chapter 5 Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Tolerance of P Stress in Plants.- Chapter 6 Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Tolerance of Fe Stress in Plants.- Chapter 7 Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Tolerance of Zn Stress in Plants.- Chapter 8 Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Heavy Metal Tolerance in Plants.- Chapter 9 Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Tolerance of Temperature stress in Plants.- Chapter.10 Roles of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in Protecting against Plant/soil Pathogens.- Chapter 11 Arbuscular Mycorrhizas and Reactive OxygenSpecies.- Chapter 12 Arbuscular Mycorrhizas and Ecosystem Restoration.- Chapter 13 Application of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi into Agriculture.

Springer Verlag, Singapore Advances in Agricultural and Industrial
Book SynopsisDiversity of microbial communities in soil and their multifaceted functionalities has paved the way for utilization of microbes in industries. This book comprises of soil microbial diversity and role of microbes in agro-industry.This volume is the compilation of the updated research from resource persons on impact of soil microbial diversity like increasing soil fertility, CO2 sequestration, and understanding soil microbial communities through cutting edge technology. Besides, the book embodies microbes renewed role in production of bioplastics, nutraceuticals, dairy products, drugs from macro-fungi, potential economic development from agrowaste or fish waste, and advance approaches in bioprospecting of biocatalyst and biosensing of secondary metabolites. This will not only improve knowledge but also enhance research on exploiting soil microbes in industry or agro-industry. The proposed book, Advances in Agricultural and Industrial Microbiology, Vol I can be very effective to bridge the gap between vastness of literatures available pertaining to agricultural and industrial microbiology and their applications with authoritative chapters containing latest updates available in this area of science.The content of the book is an exhaustive reference resource for soil microbiologist, agricultural scientists, academia, policymakers, industrial microbiologists pursuing teaching and research in these domains.Table of ContentsChapter 1.

Springer Verlag, Singapore Agro-industrial Perspectives on Sugarcane
Book SynopsisThis edited volume focuses on the core aspects of sugarcane production-management under stressful environments as well as innovative strategies for augmenting crop growth & productivity through intrinsic and extrinsic manipulations. The various chapters aim at bringing out comprehensive and advance information on different aspects of sugarcane cultivation under stress environments and impact of climate change on the sustainability of sugarcane production. The book encompasses information about crop production management, physiological & nutritional requirements, ratooning, ripening and post-harvest losses management. It also delineates various technologies that support the continued use and improvement of sugarcane as renewable source of food, fiber and bio-energy. The manipulations at cellular and molecular levels, molecular breeding approaches and post-harvest technologies are also included. The area under sugarcane cultivation is gradually increasing because of its diversification potential. The high productivity and biomass of the cane crop also makes it a key source for use as bio-energy crop and a promising raw material for bio-based agro-industries. However, poor crop & biomass productivity due to abiotic stress is the foremost constraint in its future commercial exploitation as sustainable feed-stock for bio-based industries. It is therefore imperative to understand the cellular-molecular modulation responsible to productivity barrier under specific stress situation(s) for better sugarcane quality and quantum under field condition. Some of these innovative approaches are delineated in this book. This book is of interest to progressive sugarcane growers, millers, industrial entrepreneurs, sugarcane scientists, cane development and extension officers, sugar industry managers and valuable source of reference worldwide.Table of ContentsAttached
