Phytoremediation: Biotechnological Strategies for Promoting Invigorating Environs focuses on phytoremediation’s history, present and future potential, discussing mechanisms of remediation, different types of pollutant and polluted environs, cell signaling, biotechnology, and molecular biology, including site-directed DNA and the omics related to plant sciences. Sections focus on phytoremediation as an economically feasible and environmentally safe strategy, including its mechanisms from macroscopic to microscopic level, strategies of assisted phytoremediation, the role of omics on innovations on the field, the development of genetically modified plants (GMPs) to deal with pollutants, the future prospects of targeted genetic engineering in phytoremediation and remediation advantages and disadvantages.

Other sections in the book explore the phytoremediation of specific environs (water and soil) and specific contaminants that are of major worldwide concern.

Dr. Rouf Ahmad Bhat is working in Cluster University Srinagar (J&K), India in the capacity of Assistant Professor and his specialisation is in Limnology, Toxicology, Phyto-chemistry and Phytoremediation. He is an author of more than 53 scientific articles and 35 book chapters, and has published 18 books with international publishers. Dr. Bhat has worked as an Associate Environmental Expert in World Bank funded Flood Recovery Project and also Environmental Support Staff in Asian Development Bank (ADB) funded development projects. He has received many awards, appreciations and recognitions for his services to the science of water testing, air and noise analysis. Dr. Fernanda Maria Policarpo Tonelli (Ph.D) is specialized in biotechnology/molecular biology and has been studying nanomaterials applications such as delivery and remediation. She has worked with engineered viral particles and nanomaterials functionalized by different protocols (gold nanorods, carbon nanotubes, carbon-dots, nanoparticles, nanographene oxide) that resulted in 10 patent applications. She teaches topics related to biochemistry and biotechnology/molecular biology to graduate students as an associate professor at Federal University of São João del Rei. Dr. Tonelli has edited and/or authored 3 books, has reviewed various articles/book proposals, has authored 12 scientific articles and more than 20 book chapters from international publishers. The main topics addressed in the publications are: nanomaterials, gene delivery strategies, remediation strategies and cell signaling. She has presented and participated in numerous national and international conferences and has also had the opportunity to contribute to the organization of various scientific events. Dr. Tonelli has also dedicated herself to promote Science and Technology co-funding an ONG with this purpose and also joining a scientific divulgation group composed only by women. She has had her efforts as a researcher recognized by various awards (including For Women in Science Brazil-L’Oreal/UNESCO/ABC and Under30 Brazil – Forbes) and certificates of merit. Dr Dar is an Assistant Professor at Cluster University Srinagar, India. They specialize in environmental sciences, soil ecology, environmental microbiology and environmental biotechnology. They have published 20 research articles and 5 book chapters. Dr. Khalid Rehman Hakeem (PhD) is Professor at King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. He has more both teaching and research experience in plant eco-physiology, biotechnology and molecular biology, medicinal plant research, plant-microbe-soil interactions as well as in environmental studies. He has served as the visiting scientist at Jinan University, Guangzhou, China. He has more than 110 research publications in peer-reviewed international journals has extensive book publishing experience as well. He is included in the advisory board of Cambridge Scholars Publishing, UK. He is a fellow of Plantae group of the American Society of Plant Biologists, member of the World Academy of Sciences, member of the International Society for Development and Sustainability, Japan, and member of Asian Federation of Biotechnology, Korea.
