A Textbook Of Biotechnology Vol. Ii

The book is intended for undergraduate students of pure and applied sciences for Indian universities. A book of Biotechnology which may cover all the major domains of human activity and welfare ranging from agriculture to medicine and environment was long awaited. This book is successful attempt in this direction.
