	abstract = {<p>The natural Saccharomyces and non-Saccharomyces yeast flora present on the grape berries significantly affect wine production. Six grape varieties, Bangalore blue, Zinfandel, Cabernet, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Shiraz are being used in India for wine making. The yeast diversity was studied on the basis of morphological, colony, physiological characteristics and 5.8S-ITS sequencing of rDNA of the isolates. Eleven different species belonging to seven genera were identified as: Candida azyma, Candida quercitrusa, Debaryomyces hansenii, Hanseniaspora guilliermondii, Hanseniaspora viniae, Hanseniaspora uvarum. Issatchenkia orientalis, Issatchenkia terricola, Pichia membranifaciens, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Zygoascus steatolyticus. H. guilliermondii was the predominant species while S. cerevisiae was observed occasionally in the six vine varieties. For the first time, C. azyma was isolated from Bangalore blue and Cabernet varieties grown in different localities. This association may be attributed to the change in cropping pattern from sugarcane to viticulture in the vine growing regions and the known association of C. azyma with sugarcane phylloplane. Further analysis of the indigenous strains and the qualitative and quantitative changes in the flora during fermentation will be useful to understand wine quality and to design preservation strategies to control wine spoilage.

	abstract = {Presently, the actual utilization of pesticides on the target is < 0.1\% due to spray drift, rainwater leaching, etc., which makes pesticide usage inefficient. Therefore, in the agriculture scenario, the use of nanobiopesticides for ease of application, targeted delivery and a reduction in the load of pesticides, and protection of microbial diversity is holding significant promise. The nanomaterials in sensors and biosensors help in miniaturization, the real-time measurement of more variables present in low quantities, and early detection of pests and pathogens. The metal and metal oxide nanoparticles play significant roles in biopesticide degradation. However, one has to address issues related to associated risks to crop health, soil microbial diversity, and mankind due to such nano-based products. Accordingly, formulation of regulatory guidelines for their use also becomes an important component of the strategy.},
