This book provides an overview of Streptomyces, highlighting their habitats, diversity, genetic structure, and metabolic engineering techniques to enhance the production of secondary metabolites.This book is of interest to researchers, and professionals working in the fields of microbiology, industrial microbiology, and biotechnology.
This book provides a comprehensive understanding of streptomycetes, highlighting their various habitats, diversity, genetic structure, and metabolic engineering techniques to enhance the production of secondary metabolites. It also presents techniques for the isolation, cultivation, biochemical identification, chemotaxonomy, and phylogenetic analysis of streptomycetes. The book explores the production of bioactive compounds from streptomycetes, including novel natural products, antimicrobial agents, pharmaceuticals, medicinal compounds, and bioactive enzymes. Furthermore, the book examines the diverse applications of streptomycetes in agriculture, medicine, industry, and bioremediation. The chapters emphasize the latest technological advancements such as bioprocess optimization, genetic engineering, metabolic engineering, genome mining, and pathway engineering for enhancing the production of secondary metabolites from Streptomyces. As such, this book is of interest to academicians, researchers, and professionals working in the fields of microbiology, industrial microbiology, medical microbiology, fermentation technology, and biotechnology.
