商品描述
This book addresses the diversity of tropical microorganisms and its applications in agriculture, renewable energy production and environmental protection. It covers several tropical habitats such as rain forests, mangroves, sea and river waters and describes how microorganisms isolated from these regions can be used to control insects and plant diseases, to improve sugar cane and biofuels production among other applications. The book also aims to bring researchers' attention to the potential of tropical microorganisms for biotechnological purposes, an area that is still far from being well explored.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書探討熱帶微生物的多樣性及其在農業、可再生能源生產和環境保護中的應用。內容涵蓋多個熱帶棲息地,如雨林、紅樹林、海洋和河流水域,並描述如何利用從這些地區分離出的微生物來控制昆蟲和植物疾病,改善甘蔗和生物燃料的生產等應用。本書還旨在引起研究人員對熱帶微生物在生物技術用途方面潛力的關注,這是一個仍然未被充分探索的領域。
