520 This book provides a concise and comprehensive overview of
the basic biology, genomics, biotechnological applications
and role of Pseudomonas in agriculture, environment and
industry. The Pseudomonas genus occupies a key position in
medicine, the environment, agriculture and commercial
biotechnology by virtue of its genetic diversity,
metabolic adaptability and versatility and the broad array
of ecological niches that it inhabits. Pseudomonas
aeruginosa, an opportunistic pathogen, is known for its
multiple drug resistance and is associated with cystic
fibrosis and wound infections particularly in patients
with burn injuries. Pseudomonas syringae is a plant
pathogen and is responsible for major crop losses in
horticultural, vegetable and field crops. Another species,
P. fluorescens is known for promoting plant growth through
the production of certain hormones and the biocontrol of
soil-borne fungal diseases and insects. The ability to
adapt to diverse and challenging environments and degrade
recalcitrant compounds means that the genus is widely
exploited for bioremediation, while their genetic
diversity coupled with broad catalytic potential makes
them valuable in biotransformation, synthesis of high-
value chiral compounds for biosynthesis and production of
biopolymers and bio-surfactants widely used in medicine,
agriculture and industry. The book serves as a ready
reference and text book for graduate students, young field
microbiologists and research scientists in academia,
research institutes and industry
