Forest Fungi: Biodiversity, Conservation, Mycoforestry and Biotechnology explores sustainable option aspects of forest fungal research, from the selection of hosting plants, isolation, identification, fermentation, identification of secondary metabolites, omics-tools for better understanding the plant-fungus Interactions. Forests are the world’s greatest repository of terrestrial biomass, soil carbon and biodiversity. They provide a variety of provisioning, supporting, regulatory and cultural ecosystem services, which are crucial for the survival of human beings. Fungi play key roles in forest ecosystems as mutualists, saprobes and pathogens.Focuses on the biodiversity of forest fungi and their potential biotechnological application for sustainable developmentIncludes high quality illustrations and figures for enhanced ease of understanding the process mechanism

Fungi are an essential, fascinating and biotechnologically useful group of organisms with an incredible biotechnological potential for industrial exploitation. As a result of this steadily increased interest in fungi, the methods needed for their isolation, identification, their genetic manipulation, and monitoring of gene expression and protein production, have become refined and complemented. All techniques available in the area of fungal biology viz. protocols for sampling protozoan fungal analogues to entomopathogenic fungi; from fungi growing on and in animals and plants to mushrooms and truffles; histopathological and microscopy techniques; proteomics methods; genomics methods; industrial applications and related techniques; applications in health and agricultural industries and bioinformatics tools in fungi will be covered and complied in this book. This book will serve as a first source for traditional methods of mycology as well as modern molecular techniques. This book shouldbe on the bookshelf of every serious practitioner of mycology in academia, industry, and government, and in clinical laboratories. It will serve as a rich resource on methods for seasoned professionals as well as for students at all levels. This book presents an inventory of techniques and methods that are currently in use for studying fungi by mycologists.

This book promotes green fungus-based cosmetics that are beneficial for human health and disease and offer a real alternative to chemical cosmetics.The book provides a comprehensive overview of various fungi that can be used to produce cosmetic products. The main topics covered are fungal/mushroom production, extraction of their medicinal products, formulation of cosmetics, and their usage. It highlights the beneficial functions of these cosmetics such as anti-ageing, antioxidant, anti-wrinkle effect, skin whitening, moisturising effect and anti-acne/dandruff effect. In addition to the various methods covered in each chapter, the book also contains an extensive bibliography listing the current literature in the field.Therefore, it is a valuable resource for researchers and entrepreneurs in the cosmetics industry and postgraduate students in cosmetic science. The book also provides amateurs in the personal care industry with limited experience in the field with knowledge of various methods to produce safe and healthy cosmetics.

The present study has attempted to apply the advantage of neuro-genetic algorithms for optimal decision making in maximum utilization of natural resources. Hydro-power is one of the inexpensive, but a reliable source of alternative energy which is foreseen as the possible answer to the present crisis in the energy sector. However, the major problem related to hydro-energy is its dependency on location. An ideal location can produce maximum energy with minimum loss. Besides, such power-plant also requires substantial amount of land which is a precious resource nowadays due to the rapid and uncontrolled urbanization observed in most of the urban centres in the World. The feasibility of such plants also depends on social acceptance as well as the level of environmental casualty and economic benefit, all of which is also spatially dependent. Decision making algorithms are applied to identify better solution if a problem has more than one alternative explication. Nature based algorithms are found to be efficient enough to catalyze such kind of decision making analysis. That is why the present study tries to utilize nature based algorithms to solve the problems of location selection for hydropower plants. The study employed six different types of nature based algorithms to select one of the locations among many available for installation of hydropower plant in the North Eastern part of the Indian subcontinent. The locations are selected based on their in stream resources and included in the decision making as alternatives. A methodology of criteria selection, determination of weightage and applications of bioinspired algorithms are adopted to produce utmost exertion of the available natural resources with minimum hostility and wastage of the same.
