About the Book
This book delves into various applications and tools of bioinformatics in a range of fields, including agriculture, corals, structural bioinformatics, data mining, text mining, medicinal plants, antibiotics, protein structure prediction, drug design, gene expression, micro-arrays, proteomics, molecular phylogenetics, artificial neural networks, plant systems biology, molecular modeling, homology modeling, bio-efficacy of indigenous bacillus through in-silico approach, and fresh aquaculture and fisheries. It also covers topics such as pesticides and insecticides, database and tool development in relevant areas, and would be of great utility to individuals working in the fields of agricultural biotechnology, bioinformatics, computer science, and applied statistics.
