The pandemic has taught the world to be self-reliant in all aspects and to shift the primary focus to the health network. It also brought us back to traditional medical systems for the cure of instant symptoms. The countries with the best healthcare facilities will become prosperous in the future.India is one of the world’s […]
Introduction Cyanobacteria, the earliest Gram-negative prokaryotes, emerged during the Precambrian era and have pivotal role in oxygen evolution, fostering the development of diverse life forms [1]. However, contemporary challenges such as anthropogenic atmospheric pollutants and ozone depletion have intensified UV radiation reaching Earth’s surface, posing significant threats to cyanobacteria. To counteract these challenges, cyanobacteria produce

Introduction In the face of a growing global population and the unpredictable impacts of climate change on agricultural productivity, there is an increasing need to develop crops that are resilient to environmental stressors and capable of yielding higher harvests. This challenge has led to the emergence of genome editing technologies as promising tools to revolutionize
Introduction The multipurpose gram-negative bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa is infamous for its toxicity and drug resistance. Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a complex defensive mechanism that has serious implications for human health. More than sixty percent of adult infections are associated with P.aeruginosa [13], and approximately thirty thousand people are living with CF in the United
The development of CRISPR/Cas (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats/CRISPR-associated proteins) genome editing technology has catalyzed a paradigm shift in the field of agricultural biotechnology, particularly in the context of fruit crop improvement. The CRISPR/Cas system, which was originally discovered as an adaptive immune mechanism in bacteria and archaea, has been harnessed to precisely modify

Introduction More than half of the world’s food needs are met by the cereal crop known as rice. More than 700× 106 tonnes of rice were produced worldwide in one year from 167 million tonnes of rice. Irrigated lowland rice provides more than 75% of the world’s total rice production. In general, rice has been
Introduction Overview of the significance of immunomodulation, drug discovery, and medicine in healthcare The field of immunomodulation holds significant importance in healthcare, as it involves the manipulation of the immune system to achieve therapeutic outcomes [1]. The immune system plays a vital role in protecting the body against infections, pathogens, and abnormal cells. However, dysregulation

Microbial Diversity: Unveiling the Vast Spectrum of Microbes for Drug Discovery In the quest for novel therapeutic agents, researchers have increasingly turned their attention toward the incredible diversity of microorganisms inhabiting our planet. Microbes, including bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses, have demonstrated immense potential as sources of bioactive compounds with pharmaceutical applications [1-3]. The sheer
Introduction Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera Linnaeus) has been cultivated in Middle East and North Africa for over 5000 years, genus Phoenix has fourteen species and P. dactylifera is claimed to have over 5000 cultivars [1-3] .Various types of the insect pests can attack on date palm [4]. The red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier; Coleoptera:
