Fungi are an essential, fascinating and biotechnologically useful
group of organisms with an incredible biotechnological potential
for industrial exploitation. Knowledge of the world's fungal
diversity and its use is still incomplete and fragmented. There are
many opportunities to accelerate the process of filling knowledge
gaps in these areas. The worldwide interest of the current era is
to increase the tendency to use natural substances instead of
synthetic ones. The increasing urge in society for natural
ingredients has compelled biotechnologists to explore novel
bioresources which can be exploited in industrial sector. Fungi,
due to their unique attributes and broad range of their biological
activities hold great promises for their application in
biotechnology and industry. Fungi are an efficient source of
antioxidants, enzymes, pigments, and many other secondary
metabolites. The large scale production of fungal pigments and
their utility provides natural coloration without creating harmful
effects on entering the environment, a safer alternative use to
synthetic colorants. The fungal enzymes can be exploited in wide
range of industries such as food, detergent, paper, and also for
removal toxic waste. This book will serve as valuable source of
information as well as will provide new directions to researchers
to conduct novel research in field of mycology. Volume 2 of
"Industrially Important Fungi for Sustainable Development" provides
an overview to understanding bioprospecting of fungal biomolecules
and their industrial application for future sustainability. It
encompasses current advanced knowledge of fungal communities and
their potential biotechnological applications in industry and
allied sectors. The book will be useful to scientists, researchers,
and students of microbiology, biotechnology, agriculture, molecular
biology, and environmental biology.
