Cyanobacterial Lifestyle and Its Applications in Biotechnology

Cyanobacterial Lifestyle and its Applications in Biotechnology discusses the different aspects of cyanobacteria, with an aim of helping readers better understand advanced cyanobacterial molecular biology aspects that will allow us to uncover the potential of cyanobacteria in the tailoring of stress smart crops for sustainable agriculture. Chapters deal with the different aspects of cyanobacteria and discuss diverse cyanobacterial communities that have the ability to fix atmospheric nitrogen with their photosynthetic properties and applications in field conditions. The book discusses several cyanobacterial species that have been exploited to enhance soil fertility, mitigate biotic and abiotic stress, and provide contamination management.

This book tackles the urgent need to explore cyanobacterial metabolism under stress as well as their regulatory pathways for sustainable agriculture. In recent decades, the application of cyanobacteria has attracted the scientists because of uniqueness, better adaptability, and synthetic products, hence this book provides a timely resource on the topic.
