Farmers apply chemical fertilizers in the field soil to provide nitrogen and phosphorus nutrients for improving growth and yield of crop plants to provide food for ever-increasing human population. But, injudicious use of these chemical fertilizers results in environmental pollution and causes public health hazards. Recently, various nitrogen-fixin...

Recent technological advances in computational biology and bioinformatics have generated a lot of biological information and voluminous biological data all over the world. This biological data/information has necessitated the requirement of computerized databases to store, categorize and index the data as well as to view and analyze the data using...

Cloud computing allows individuals and businesses to use software and hardware that are managed by third parties at remote locations. Cloud computing provides a platform with an enhanced and efficient way to store data in the cloud server with different range of capabilities and applications. Different cloud computing models allow access to informa...

Data security has been a major and challenging aspect in the modern era of information technology involving the internet and network applications. Especially it becomes serious in the cloud environment because the data is located in different places all over the world. The purpose of securing data is that only concerned and authorized users can acc...

Metabolic engineering involves construction and optimization of biosynthetic pathways to maximize yields of desired products for various biochemical applications. The fundamental engineering principles in synthetic biology include the development of tools and techniques for understanding and modification of the DNA, RNA and proteins. Genetic circui...

Cells of living organisms are ‘natural nanocomputers’ which read and rewrite DNA all the time and perform all the processing for the organisms’ activities. Computer scientists along with molecular biologist and biochemists are exploring the potential for computation of biological molecules such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (R...

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) has been a favourite building block for molecular computations and biological computers. The biological molecule DNA serves to store genetic information and particular DNA base sequence arrangement in a gene determines the order of chain of amino acids. These amino acids are the building block molecules for protein/enzym...
