This book is assembled with the intent of bringing together current advances and in-depth reviews of bio-based industrial products and agricultural biotechnology. The recent energy and food crises point out the importance of bio-based products from renewable resources and agricultural biotechnology, and it is inevitable that the modern tools of molecular engineering on plants, animals and microorganisms be used to solve these crises and improve the wellness of all forms of life on our planet. It is organized in five parts: Fundamentals, Nutraceuticals and Product Development, Genetic Engineering of Agricultural Products, Bioenergy (Biodiesel, Bioethanol, and Biohydrogen Production), and Biocatalysis and Bio-based Products. Methods and applications will be the focus of this book.
