Fungal Secondary Metabolites: Synthesis and Applications in Agroecosystem presents the properties and biotechnological applications of fungal metabolites and their industrial, pharmaceutical, antimicrobial, and anticancer applications. Chapters cover topics including the role of fungal metabolites in the management of biotic or abiotic stress, microbial alkaloids and their pharmaceutical and agricultural applications, and fungal metabolites as novel plant pathogen antagonists. In order to develop novel bioactive compounds, researchers must understand the agricultural applications of fungal metabolites. This book provides expert insights from around the globe highlighting the latest understanding and future prospects for their use. Plant and agri-food environmental scientists, researchers, graduate, and post-graduate students in related fields will find value in this reference book which is published as part of the Nanobiotechnology for Plant Protection series.

Heba I. Mohamed is Professor of Plant Physiology in the Department of Biological and Geological Sciences Department, Ain Shams University, Cairo, Egypt. Her research interests include biotic and abiotic stresses, plant biochemistry, use of eco-friendly compounds to alleviate plant stress, plant secondary metabolites, and genetic differences between different genotypes. Prof. Kamel A. Abd-Elsalam, Ph.D., is currently a research professor at the Plant Pathology Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, Giza. Kamel earned his Ph.D. in Molecular Plant Pathology from Christian Alberchts University of Kiel (Germany) and Suez Canal University (Egypt). Dr. Kamel’s research interests include developing, improving, and deploying plant biosecurity diagnostic tools; understanding and exploiting fungal pathogen genomes; and developing eco-friendly hybrid nanomaterials for controlling toxicogenic fungi, plant diseases, and agroecosystems applications. He published 20 books related to nano-biotechnology applications in agriculture and plant protection. Since 2019, he has served as the Editor-in-Chief of the Elsevier book series “Nanobiotechnology for Plant Protection.” He also serves as the Series Editor of the Elsevier book series “Genome Modified Plants and Microbes in Food and Agriculture.”
