Summary:
This book provides the latest information on aquatic AMR from the perspective of inflammation and presents new ideas on the complicated mechanisms of lectin biochemistry and associated interactions. Key features include discussion of mechanisms recently identified to be involving surveillance and monitoring of AMR and AMU, presentation of the latest evidence regarding the molecular approaches in disease therapeutics, and thorough explanation of the concept of one health challenges and current understanding of the significance of its disease resistance related studies. Gene expression studies is another important element of the book, and it is proposed that gene editing technology provides gaining attention in the biological role of fresh water and marine environments. Examples of the many latest molecular approaches, applications and future perspectives in AMR specific topics covered in this book include the information right from the basics to the advancements in this area. The book will be a valuable update and resource for both experienced and younger researchers working in the field of marine biology and immunology.
