‘A Practical Approach to Biofungicide Formulation: Methods and Protocols’ is a book that provides a comprehensive guide to the development of biofungicides. Biofungicides are biological products used to control fungal diseases in plants, and their popularity has been increasing in recent years due to their environmentally friendly nature and low toxicity. The book covers selection and screening of biofungicidal agents, culture maintenance, and development of stable and effective formulations. The role of carriers, adjuvants, and surfactants in the formulation, compatibility, and application is also elaborated. Formulation of biofungicides using Trichoderma, Pseudomonas, and Streptomyces, their scale up production, and delivery methods in sustainable disease management are also explained. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge in the field and offers practical guidance for improving the efficacy and stability of biofungicide formulations. It is a must-read for researchers, students, and industry professionals looking to develop and apply biofungicides in a safe and effective manner.

Descrizione libreria

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places.

We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence.
