Aprašymas

This book examines the role of cyanobacteria and plant-microbe interactions in promoting sustainability and resilience to abiotic stress. It emphasizes the ecological and functional importance of cyanobacteria in diverse environments, including their contributions to UV protection, soil fertility, and the development of natural sunscreens. Additionally, it highlights the biomedical potential of cyanobacterial compounds and their adaptive mechanisms under varying environmental conditions. The book also examines light signaling mechanisms in cyanobacteria and higher plants, focusing on chromatic acclimation, blue light-mediated responses, and ribosomal subunit assembly, providing valuable insights into their functions in growth, development, and potential antimicrobial targets. Additionally, it explores the complex interactions between plants and microbial communities, highlighting their contributions to improving plant growth, enhancing disease resistance, and producing bioactive compounds through endophytic and rhizosphere associations.
