Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being One Of The Earliest Living Forms Originated On This Planet, Blue Green Algae (Cyanophytes/Cyanobacteria) Have Successfully Lived Through A Variety Of Environmental Abiotic Stresses, Such As Extreme Heat Of The Primitive Earth, Anaerobiosis Prevalent At The Time Of Their Origin To Subsequent Oxygeny For Which They Have Been Responsible. Over The Years They Have Adapted Themselves To Several Man-Made Stresses Like Various Types Of Industrial Effluents Of Different Chemical Make-Up, Chemical Fertilizers, Pesticides, Heavy Metals, Etc. For These Reasons They Are Considered As An Appropriate Model System For Studies Of Stress And Adaptive Responses. The Book Contains Information On Ecophysiological Responses Of Blue Green Algae In Habitats Polluted By Different Types Of Industrial Effluents, E.G. The Untreated Effluent Released From A Molasses Distillery, Sponge-Iron Industry And A Fertilizer Factory. Interaction Of Nitrogen Fixing Blue Green Algae In Rice Fields To Different Commercial Pesticides Has Also Been Described. The Blue Green Algal Forms Colonizing The Exposed Surface Of Archaeologically Important Temples And Monuments Of Various Regions Of India Is Given. Survival Strategies Of Blue Green Algal Species On The Exposed Rock Surfaces As Well As In The Crust On Dried Soils Of Rice Fields Under Temperature And Desiccation Stress Has Been Presented. Ecophysiology Of Thermal Blue Green Algae Has Also Been Described. It Would Serve As A Reference Book For Researchers In Universities And Research Institutions Working On Adaptation Of Plants And Microorganisms To Environmental Stresses And Also For Botany, Microbiology And Environmental Science Students At M.Sc. Level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algal Culturing Techniques is a comprehensive reference on all aspects of the isolation and cultivation of marine and freshwater algae, including seaweeds. It is divided into seven parts that cover history, media preparation, isolation and purification techniques, mass culturing techniques, cell counting and growth measurement techniques, and reviews on topics and applications of algal culture techniques for environmental investigations. Algal Culturing Techniques was developed to serve as both a new textbook and key reference for phycologists and others studying aquatic systems, aquaculture and environmental sciences. Students of algal ecology, marine botany, marine phycology, and microbial ecology will enjoy the hands-on methodology for culturing a variety of algae from fresh and marine waters. Researchers in industry, such as aquaculture, pharmaceutical, foodstuffs, and biotechnology companies will find an authoritative and comprehensive reference. - Sponsored by the Phycological Society of America - Features color photographs and illustrations throughout - Describes culturing methods ranging from the test tube to outdoor ponds and coastal seaweed farms - Details isolation techniques ranging from traditional micropipette to automated flow cytometeric methods - Includes purification, growth, maintenance, and cryopreservation techniques - Highlights methods for estimating algal populations, growth rates, isolating and measuring algal pigments, and detecting and culturing algal viruses - Features a comprehensive appendix of nearly 50 algal culture medium recipes - Includes a glossary of phycological terms

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extremophiles have unique physiological properties, thus considered to be ideal candidates for industrial development. This book present concepts on cold-adapted microorganisms, centered on four different aspects - (i) diversity of cold adapted microbes (ii) their ecology, physiology and metabolism (iii) omics research in the field and (iv) their potential applications. This volume collates the recent developments and innovations with respect to these microorganisms. This book is meant for researchers, biochemists, industries, and government agencies interested in cold active microbes and their products. Also, would be of interest to NGOs and progressive farmers which are working for higher altitude ecosystems throughout the globe.

Download or read book Algae written by Christiaan Hoek and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algae are ubiquitous. A multitude of species, ranging from microscopic unicells to gigantic kelps, inhabit the world's oceans, freshwater bodies, soils, rocks and trees. To understand the basic role of algae in the global ecosystem, a reliable and modern introduction to their kaleidoscopic diversity, systematics and phylogeny is indispensible. This volume provides such an introduction. The text represents a completely revised and updated edition of a highly acclaimed German textbook which was heralded for its clarity as well as its breadth and depth of information. This new edition takes into account recent re-evaluations in algal systematics and phylogeny which have been made necessary by insights provided by the powerful techniques of molecular genetics and electron microscopy, as well as more traditional life history studies.
