The development of products or processes by using or modifying biological systems and living organisms for specific use falls under the scientific domain of biotechnology. It is a multidisciplinary field that integrates the studies of genomics, applied immunology, recombinant gene techniques, pharmaceutical therapies and diagnostic tools. Its applications are prevalent in a number of significant domains such as agriculture, health care, industries and environment. Bioinformatics is a branch of biotechnology. It is concerned with the application of statistics and computing to develop methods and software for analyzing biological data. The study of the genetic basis of disease, genetic diversity in populations and unique adaptations is possible because of the application of bioinformatics. It aids in furthering the studies in experimental molecular biology, genetics, genomics, etc. This book unravels the recent studies in the fields of biotechnology and bioinformatics. It also elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary manner. Students, researchers, experts and all associated with these fields will benefit alike from this book.
