Expanding Horizon of Cyanobacterial Biology discusses the different
aspects of cyanobacteria cyanobacterial application, providing a better
understanding of cyanobacterial metabolism. Chapters deal with
cyanobacteria applications and explore how to exploit cyanobacterial
metabolism for industrial applications. Sections cover cyanobacterial
applications for the production of nanoparticles, cyanobacterial
diversity, and the characterization of different assemblages such as
cyanolichens and cyanobacterial endophytes, along with their ecological,
morphological and physiological aspects. In addition, bioactive
compounds and their applications are explored.
Increasing attention has been paid by scientists across the globe to
Cyanobacteria as they are ubiquitous microbes and, undoubtedly, an
important organism in terms of carbon as well as nitrogen fixation.
However, the research on these organisms is limited in terms of their
diversity and distribution across the globe.
