This book illustrates that the fungal cell wall is critical for the biology and ecology of all fungi and especially for human fungal pathogens. Readers will learn that the composition of the fungal cell wall is a unique structure which cannot be found in the human host. Conseque…
Microalgae are a diverse group of oxygenic photosynthetic microorganisms which show great promise as a source of biofuel. However, significant challenges still remain before microalgae can be considered a viable source of biofuel. The main current challenges are nutrient sourcin…
As the global population rises to an estimated 9.4bn by 2050, the pressure for food, fuel and freshwater will continue to increase. Current renewable energy technologies are not widely applicable to the transport sector, which requires energy dense liquid fuels that drop into ou…
Bioconversion of corn stover on an industrial scale requires a safe and long-term storage method for large quantities of corn stover in order to supply biorefineries continuously year round. The ensilage process, which is a traditional crop storage method for ruminants in winter…
This thesis examined the role of phenolic substances in resistance to insect pests of maize and sorghum. Eight landraces of sorghum collected in Ethiopia were assessed for methanol soluble phenolic content (as catechin equivalents) by the Prussian blue procedure and storage inse…
Various methodologies designed to study cell walls are compiled in this book. Methods in Cell Wall Cytochemistry covers the use of modern dyes, fluorescent chemicals, lectins, and antibody technology (immunocytochemistry). Addressing an emerging area of research and technology, …
