Fungal Secondary Metabolites
Synthesis and Applications in Agroecosystem
About this book
Fungal Secondary Metabolites: Synthesis and Applications in Agroecosystem presents the properties and biotechnological applications of microbial metabolites and their industrial, pharmaceutical, antimicrobial, and anticancer applications.
Chapters cover topics such as the role of fungal metabolites in the management of abiotic stress, microbial alkaloids and their pharmaceutical and agricultural applications, and fungal metabolites as novel plant pathogen antagonists. Plant and agri-food environmental scientists, researchers, graduate, and post-graduate students in related fields will find value in this reference which is published as part of the series Nanobiotechnology for Plant Protection.
- Addresses the link between fungal secondary metabolites and health
- Covers cryptic genes and their link to the production of bioactive compounds
- Explores possibilities for producing bio-based business solutions
