A wide range of microbiologists, molecular biologists, and molecular evolutionary biologists will find this new volume of singular interest. It summarizes the present knowledge about the structure and stability of microbial genomes, and reviews the techniques used to analyze and fingerprint them. Maps of approximately thirty important microbes, along with articles on the construction and relevant features of the maps are included. The volume is not intended as a complete compendium of all information on microbial genomes, but rather focuses on approaches, methods and good examples of the...

The premiere two-volume reference on revelations from studying complex microbial communities in many distinct habitats
Metagenomics is an emerging field that has changed the way microbiologists study microorganisms. It involves the genomic analysis of microorganisms by extraction and cloning of DNA from a group of microorganisms, or the direct use of the purified DNA or RNA for sequencing, which allows scientists to bypass the usual protocol of isolating and culturing individual microbial species. This method is now used in laboratories across the globe to study microorganism...

The premiere two-volume reference on revelations from studying complex microbial communities in many distinct habitats
Metagenomics has revolutionized microbiology and many associated health and environmental fields. This is the first comprehensive treatise covering the various -omics in a large variety of habitats, which could not previously have been analysed without metagenomic methodology. This is a reference work both for people in the field and those who would like to enter it.
Two volume set covers topics including:
Volume One
Species designations in microbiology Metagenomics Consortia and databases Bioinformatics Microarrays Other...

Bacteria in various habitats are subject to continuously changing environmental conditions, such as nutrient deprivation, heat and cold stress, UV radiation, oxidative stress, dessication, acid stress, nitrosative stress, cell envelope stress, heavy metal exposure, osmotic stress, and others. In order to survive, they have to respond to these conditions by adapting their physiology through sometimes drastic changes in gene expression. In addition they may adapt by changing their morphology, forming biofilms, fruiting bodies or spores, filaments, Viable But Not Culturable (VBNC) cells or...
