New Horizons of Biological Sciences: Advantages and Challenges

This book is an anthology of research papers which focuses exclusively on the advantages and challenges of biological sciences. These research papers were presented in the National Seminar organised by the departments of Botany and Industrial Microbiology of Patna Women's College, Patna University, Patna in November 2018 on the topic "New Horizons of Biological sciences : Advantages and Challenges". The increasing amount of biological information due to advances in technology is often cross- disciplined and collaborative. This book is thus an attempt to present a comprehensive and multidimensional study of diverse research topics and methods in Biological Sciences. Hence, this book covers research outcomes in modern Botany, Genetics, Tissue culture and Plant Breeding, Nanotechnology, Microbiology, Fermentation technology and Ecology. We hope this book will be helpful to the research community not only for the advancement of biological science but also to meet the challenges. Weight 0.300 Gm.
