Fungal Biotechnology: Industrial Applications and Market Potential provides a comprehensive and holistic review on the uses of filamentous fungi in food, agriculture, and pharmaceutical industries. In addition to genetic and metabolic engineering approaches for heterologous proteins production in fungi, the book focuses on fungi as a source of bioactive compounds like enzymes, polysaccharides, alkaloids, glycoproteins, and phytohormones. It describes recent trends in the use of fungi for solid waste management and its subsequent conversion into value added products.

As a complete guide on the broad uses of microfungi in different industrial sectors while maintaining a sustainable environment, this book is a beneficial resource for students, researchers, and scientists as an effective means of imparting knowledge on the current trends and future perspectives in the field of fungal biotechnology.

Dr. Singh is working in the area of Industrial Biotechnology particularly industrial enzymes, biopolymers, glycoproteins, biofuels, etc. from fungal sources. He has more than 300 publications, including 200 research papers, 5 books, 45 book chapters, and 50 popular articles and has been granted 2 Indian patents. He has many national and international awards to his credit. He is Fellow of Biotech Research Society of India, Association of Microbiologists of India and Mycological Society of India. He was guest editor of Biologia, Indian Journal of Experimental biology and Journal of Scientific and Industrial Research in 2012. Dr. Ranjeeta Bhari is Assistant Professor at the Department of Biotechnology, Punjabi University, Patiala (Punjab), India. She has a PhD in Biotechnology in the area of Microbial technology, fungal glycoproteins and their therapeutic value. Her research interests fungi and their applications in biotechnology, fungal enzymes, proteins, glycoproteins and their applications in agriculture and management of solid waste. She has published review articles in Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, Biotechnology Advances and Current Microbiology. She has also contributed chapters in edited books. She is a life member of Biotechnology Research Society, India (BRSI) and Mycological Society of India (MSI).
