It is concerned with the study of bacteria. It includes the examination of their structure, their classification, identification and characterization. Also included in bacteriology is the study of the relation between bacteria and its surroundings, like in agriculture and medicine, etc. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to bacteriology. It includes some of the vital pieces of work being conducted across the world, on various topics related to this field. This book, with its detailed analyses and data, will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels. The main aim of this book is to educate learners and enhance their research focus by presenting diverse topics covering this vast field. This is an advanced book which compiles significant studies by distinguished experts. This book addresses successive solutions to the challenges arising in the area of application, along with it; the book provides scope for future developments. It was a great honour to edit this book, though there were challenges, as it involved a lot of communication and networking between me and the editorial team. However, the end result was this all-inclusive book covering diverse themes in the field. Finally, it is important to acknowledge the efforts of the contributors for their excellent chapters, through which a wide variety of issues have been addressed. I would also like to thank my colleagues for their valuable feedback during the making of this book. Editor __________________________WORLD TECHNOLOGIES __________________________
