    Abstract "Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy: Concepts and Applications explores the novel anti-microbial therapeutic technique. As the world is search of new, efficient modalities for fighting against microorganisms, this book can deliver a complete understanding about the concept and knowledge about the emerging technique 'antimicrobial photodynamic therapy' (aPDT) for the scientific communities and budding researchers. The book aligns concepts, significance, and applications of the technique in a systematic way. Chapters in the book discussed in detail about microorganism, pathogenesis, conventional treatment methods, significance of new treatment approaches, to the concept of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy. The authors described the mechanism behind and applications with examples from best research studies. Book also discusses in detail about the photosensitizers, one chapter especially emphasizes the natural photosensitizers. Use of nanostructures in the antimicrobial photodynamic therapy is elaborated. Book concludes with the well explored application of the therapeutic technique in dentistry. Features: Book efficiently covers the topic in detail with scientifically proven examples. Applications of the therapeutic approach is well discussed, readers can find the research gaps, challenges, and future of the technique. Starts from basics, which makes the readers to understand why the approach is relevant and important to be studied. Elucidated concept and applications in simple way makes it accessible to every level reader"--

    This book discusses genetic engineering of both plants and microbes for making agricultural practices more productive and sustainable. It chapters explore the understanding of the interaction between plants and microbes, and genomic information to modify the metabolism of plants or microbes to further enhance the beneficial interaction. The book covers the development of commercial inoculants including selection of appropriate plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria/ phosphate solubilize bacteria based on target host plant, soil type, indigenous microbial communities, environmental conditions, inoculant density, suitability of carriers and compatibility with integrated crop management. This is a relevant content for scientists and researchers working on soil biology, sustainable agricultural and plant physiology. Also, this book is a useful read for graduate and post graduate students of agriculture, botany and microbiology.
