The current book is the proceedings of National Symposium on Biodiversity Biotechnology and man Interdependence and future challenges February 26-28, 2010 sponsored by CSIR, UGC and MOEF new Delhi held at Department of Botany, Govt. Post Graduate College Lansdowne, Pauri Garhwal, Uttarakhand. The book is an attempt to wealth of information on Biodiversity conservation and biotechnology innovation. The book has been divided into sixteen chapters. The book will serve as reference and will provide source material to researchers, teachers and students on all aspects of biodiversity biotechnology.
