Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering: Pesticides: Human Health, Environmental Impacts and Management, (Paperback)

Pesticides: Human Health, Environmental Impacts and Management considers microbial degradation and environmental management of pesticides, covers microbial options as an alternative to chemical pesticides, explores plant-microbe interactions for reduced applications of pesticides in the agricultural fields, discusses the enhancement of microbial pesticides degradation, explains function of engineered microorganisms for effective pesticide degradation, describes potential indigenous/effective microbes for effective pesticide degradation processes and presents research on microbes for sustainable agricultural and environmental practices.

• Provides the latest developments and progress on pesticide management through sustainable practices
• Describes the adverse effects of pesticides on human health and its precautionary control measures through biological agents
• Introduces the aspects and advances of biological technologies in the environment for sustainable management of pesticides
• Elaborates the advanced prospective, vide application, modern practices of harnessing the potential of microbial resources in environment
