The book is essential for those seeking to understand innovative and sustainable solutions to global food insecurity and health challenges, as it offers invaluable insights into the transformative potential of mushroom biotechnology and its applications.

The intervention of microbial biotechnology in various sectors has displayed remarkable growth linked to sustainable innovations and biotechnological utilization of beneficial microorganisms, such as mushrooms, for the benefit of humanity. Recent advancements in mushroom biotechnology will prove successful due to mushrooms’ nature as natural problem solvers, including their ability to enhance nutritional values obtained from agricultural crops, sustained health benefits derived from pharmacologically active substances used to manage human diseases, and improve crop production.

This book will serve as one of the first volumes addressing the usefulness of mushroom biotechnology, giving detailed state-of-the-art information on recent advancements and how the industry could maximize profits. The volume will also assist the pharmaceutical and medical sectors by examining the discovery of novel pharmacological and bioactive compounds that could replace the various adverse effects when using synthetic drugs. It presents a simple, adaptable, reproducible methodology that will help researchers and scientists adopt these methodologies for similar projects.

Readers will find that the book:
Presents recent advances in the application of mushroom biotechnology in various sectors (food, agriculture, and health) for sustainable innovations for optimum benefit of mankind; Details applications of mushrooms for sustainable agriculture through their plant growth-promoting attributes and management of pests and diseases in plants and soils; Discusses the discovery of novel pharmacological substances from mushrooms for applications in the biomedical sector.
Audience

The book is valuable reference work for scientists and researchers working in the fields of pharmaceutical sciences, agricultural microbiology, plant pathology, botany, agriculture, microbiology, biotechnology, nanotechnology, environmental microbiology, and microbial biotechnology.
