Microbes provide us the basic tool for understanding metabolism growth, reproduction processes which are very difficult to study in higher plants. Microorganisms have also remerged as a new source for the benefit of society. Micro- organisms are capable of producing a great variety of substances that have commercial value. The ability to genetically engineer microorganisms for specific purposes has created a new field of applied microbiology.
Present book "Applied Microbiology" incorporate 20 articles on different areas of microbiology including agriculture, Industrial, Medical science, bioremediation and molecular aspects. The book contains articles on biofertilizers, Mesorhizobium symbiosis, biogas production and revolution in dahi manufacture. Chapters on biological control agents of plant disease, microbial control of insect pests of crops and disease suppressive mechanisms of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria  provide exhaustive information on the subject. Biotechnological study including applications of serological techniques for identification  and characterization of bacteria, probiotics, a natural way of healthiness have added value to the book. Articles on mycorrhiza and their role in agriculture and forestry, applications of VAM technology effect of phosphate solubilizing microorganisms and AM on growth and yield provide excellent information on the applied value of AM fungi. Book also includes articles on molecular systematic of Rhizobium management of disease by plant products and microorganisms and on microbial production of thermostable amyase.
This book will be useful to researchers, teachers and students of Microbiology, Biotechnology, Botany, Agriculture and Zoology and for the industry people at large.

Prof. (Dr.) Pravin Chandra Trivedi Ph.D., Post-Doct. (U.S.A.), F.L.S. (London), F.B.S., F.P.S.I., F.B.R.S., F.N.S.I., F.M.A., F.N.R.S.,F.I.A.T, F.E.S. Vice Chancellor, Jai Narain Vyas University, Jodhpur and MDS University, Ajmer; former Vice-Chancellor, Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gorakhpur University, Gorakhpur (U.P.); Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia Avadh University, Faizabad (UP) and Maharaja Ganga Singh University, Bikaner (Rajasthan); former Professor, Department of Botany, University of Rajasthan, Jaipur, has a brilliant academic career standing First in all public examinations. Prof. Trivedi served as Head, Department of Botany and Co-ordinator; P.G. Course in Biotechnology (2003-06); Director, College Development Council (2001-04); and served on various administrative and academic positions in the University of Rajasthan, Jaipur.
Prof. Trivedi has 40 years of teaching and research experience in the University of Rajasthan, Jaipur. He has published more than 350 research papers and review articles in Journals of repute and books. He has edited and written 174 Books (World record in the subject) and Guided 44 Ph.D. students. He has been the Principal Investigator of 21 major research projects funded by national organisations (U.G.C., C.S.I.R., I.C.A.R., D.S.T., D.B.T.). He is an elected fellow of nine reputed academic bodies. Dr. Trivedi visited several major research laboratories and delivered invited talks in many international conferences held in 15 countries (U.S.A., Canada, the U.K., Germany, The Netherlands, Italy, Japan, Denmark, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Singapore, Austria Belgium and France).
For his outstanding contribution in Plant Sciences and education field he was decorated with a large number of awards and honors. To honor his contribution, Indian Botanical Society instituted a medal in his name “ Dr. P.C. Trivedi Medal for Editorial excellence” from 2019, which is being given every year for quality book (authored/ Edited) published by plant scientist.
Prof. Trivedi has been a good teacher, researcher, author, editor, reviewer, adviser, promoter and populariser of science, traveler and, Photographer. Dr. Trivedi is truly portraying the sum total of these essential elements required in any serious teacher and researcher.
