The book deals with fungi, deftly defined as “the organisms studied by mycologists”.The fungi are now placed under three kingdoms: Fungi, Protozoa and Chromista/Straminopila due to their phylogenetic heterogeneity. In the last decade, world wide research projects: the “Deep Hypha” and AFTOL (Assembling the Fungal Tree of Life), have provided a phylogenetic classification based on genetic relatedness as evidenced by DNA sequencing data. The ‘Eumycotan fungi’, the ‘Protozoan fungi’ and the ‘Chromistan fungi’ represent distinct monophyletic groups. i.e. each group has a common ancestor and all are its descendants. The classification offered by above mega research projects and accepted by Dictionary of Fungi (2008) and leading international journals, forms the basis of this book. There are many surprises: Fungi and Animalia together form a monophyletic group. But there is no common name for them, and are called as “sister groups”. The mycologists would discover emergence of a new world of ‘modern mycology’ gleaned from recent publications.The book starts with History of Mycology remembering Louis Pasteur’s famous quote “History of science is science itself ”. There are 31 chapters describing the form and function of fungi.
Their symbiotic associations, chemical activities, secondary metabolites, mycotoxins, heterothallism, parasexuality and sex hormones are described under exclusive chapters.

CONTENT
The topic of the book is covered at the cellular, tissue, organ and organism levels and inputs from all these hierarchical levels of plant organization have been carefully integrated to get a holistic picture of growth and development in plants. The book will be useful to undergraduate, post-graduate and research students, and teachers of botany/plant sciences, plant biotechnology, agriculture and forestry.

The book Applied Microbiology is written focusing on core syllabus of states of India. The content of the subject is simple and lucid with suitable example, and neat diagrams. The book is also useful to students of biotechnology and pharmacy.The book has a part of agriculture microbiology, which deals with soil structure, function in plant growth and development, and plant diseases and management. The part on Environmental microbiology covers the role of microorganisms, their importance in food safety and food production. The final part of the book deals in importance of microorganisms in production of chemicals and medicines needed for man. The contents are updated to make the students aware of the recent developments and acquire knowledge of allied subjects in capsule form. The review questions and further readings are also provided for self assessment and knowledge.

The present book ‘Comprehensive Laboratory Manual of Life Science’, deals with practical trends in modern biological sciences. It furnishes protocols on recent advances in biotechnological methods and aims to cover three most important aspects of this interdisciplinary stream; such as Microbiology, Biochemistry and Molecular biology. The book contains four sections:1. Introduction: emphasizes on good laboratory practices and etiquettes for beginners; the do’s and don’ts of working in a laboratory, concepts and terminology, etc.2. Instruments: Principle and Precautions: explores commonly used equipments employed in different experiments.3. Experiments: is further divided into three parts: Microbiology with more than 70 experiments, Biochemistry with 62 and Molecular Biology having around 32 detailed protocols, accorded to make the readers proficient in the paramount disciplines of Bio Sciences and Biotechnology.4. Appendix: at the end, a rather comprehensive section that concludes the book.This book is designed to meet the practical requirements of undergraduate and post graduate students of Life Science, Biotechnology, Microbiology, Biochemistry and Biochemical Engineering by providing worked out solution to the most commonly practiced experiments prescribed by majority of Indian
Universities. The latest technological developments in the book will be appealing to the researchers and scientists.
The book, “A Laboratory Manual of Plant Biotechnology and Molecular Biology” comprises of workable laboratory protocols for a large number of techniques related to plant biotechnology, genetic engineering and molecular biology. This includes plant cell and tissue culture, callus and suspension culture, anther culture, ovule culture, embryo culture, Cryopreservation, Isolation of Plant protoplasts, Protoplast culture and regeneration, production of somatic hybrids through protoplast fusion, gene transformation using Agrobacterium as vector, direct gene transfer using biolistic gun, Isolation of plant and organells DNA, construction and screening of genomic DNA libraries, Molecular markers like RFLP, RAPD, SCARS and CAPS, DNA sequencing, RNA isolation and northern blotting, Isolation of proteins and western blotting etc. The manual is prepared with the objective to cater the needs of post- graduate students as well as for scientists working in the disciplines of Plant Breeding, Genetics, Botany, Plant physiology, Biochemistry, Plant Biotechnology, Molecular Biology etc. It gives an update on some well established methods and presents reliable protocols.
Plant Biotechnology and Molecular Biology: A Laboratory Manual
M.S. Punia
The book comprises of different chapters associated with methodology in Plant science (Botany), describing in a simple and comprehensive way. The importance of creativity and motivation in research, the planning and proposal of research project, the description of different techniques involved in research are described in an elaborate way. It also includes the sources/collection of scientific information, method of scientific report/paper/thesis writing etc. The book is also a source of different aspects of research methodology in plant science dealt with in a comprehensive manner tailored to the needs of postgraduate students/research scholars for easy understanding. The book is profusely illustrated. The different chapters described in the book include: Introduction, Microscopy, Plant micro-technique, Smear/Sqush technique, Plant tissue culture, Herbarium technique, Hydrogen ion concentration (pH), Centrifugation, Chromatography, Electrophoresis, Colorimetry, Spectro-photometry, Radio-isotopes in biology and Computers and their application in plant sciences. Chapters on Biostatistics, Biophysics and Bioinformatics have also been included to help the student in the statistical analysis of the results, physical principles involved in the operation of
different instruments and basics of bioinformatics. We sincerely hope that this book helps to fill up the lacuna and provides what all that is needed about the research methods required for a scholar/student in plant sciences to pursue their higher studies.
