The book opens by presenting an overview of modern research on the evolution and genetics of entomopathogenic fungi in Chapter One, including their function in the environment, relationship with the insect immune system, and their genetic diversity, among other things. Following this, Manuel Ruiz-García, Nicolás Lichilín-Ortíz, Yolanda Mejia, Juan Manuel Ortega, and Joseph Mark Shostell discuss a study in Chapter Two where it was found that the genetic diversity levels for samples of Eira Barbara were very high. In Chapter Three, Stephen M Modell, Sharon L R Kardia, and Toby Citrin compare and contrast methods of cancer treatment for three cancer types: lung, breast, and colorectal. Anne-Sophie Pezzino, Nathalie Marec-Breton, and Agnès Lacroix review the current research on the neuropsychological profiles of persons with Williams syndrome, focusing on the heterogeneity of the observed profiles, in Chapter Four. In Chapter Five, Chun Kyu Lim presents a study on chromosome rearrangements and preimplantation genetic diagnosis. In conclusion, Chapter Six by Alan López-López, Miriam Margot Rivera-Angles, Carlos Alfonso Tovilla-Zárate, Roberto Molina-Solís, Araceli Valencia-Hernández, Luis Gómez-Valencia, Thelma Beatriz González-Castro, Isela E Juárez-Rojop, María Lilia López-Narváez, Ana Fresan, and Yazmin Hernández-Díaz attempt to determine a family-based link between three polymorphisms of the brain-derived neurotrophic factor gene and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in a Tabascan-Mexican population.

In the first chapter, Saraid Mora Rochín, Ph.D., Jorge Milán Carrillo, Ph.D., and Cuauhtémoc Reyes Moreno, Ph.D. review the function of food carotenoids in oxidative stress-induced human disease prevention. In the second chapter, Andrêssa S Fernandes, Pricila N Pinheiro, Mariany C Deprá, Eduardo Jacob-Lopes, and Leila Q Zepka discuss the biosynthesis of carotenoids and bioactive caortenoids from microalgae, as well as their applications. Alexis Marsol-Vall, Albert Tomás, Mercè Balcells, Francisca Vilaró, and Ramon Canela-Garayoa present a study where cuticles of four apple varieties were studied for their carotenoid content in the third chapter. In the fourth chapter, Joanna Igielska-Kalwat reviews the cosmetic applications of carotenoids, including their antiaging properties.
