Produktbeschreibung
This volume details the exploration, collection, characterization, evaluation and conservation of microbes for sustainable utilization in the development of the global as well as national economies, e.g. in agriculture, ecosystems, environments, industry and medicine. Many research institutes and universities all over the world carry out microbiological and biotechnological research, which generates substantial genomic resources such as cDNA libraries, gene constructs, promoter regions, transgenes and more valuable assets for gene discovery and transgenic product development. This work provides up-to-date information on the management of microbial resources in the environment. It also covers the ecology of microorganisms in natural and engineered environments. In trying to understand microbial interactions it further focuses on genomic, metagenomic and molecular advances, as well as on microbial diversity and phylogeny; ecological studies of human, animal and plant microbiology and disease; microbial processes and interactions in the environment; and key technological advances. Though not intended to serve as an encyclopedic review of the subject, the various chapters investigate both theoretical and practical aspects and provide essential basic information for future research to support continued development.
Rezensionen
From the reviews:

"Management of Microbial Resources in the Environment is an eclectic mix of 20 papers centered on the very broad theme of microbes as an environmental resource. ... The book can serve as a useful first reference for a knowledgeable researcher seeking to enter a new field; the articles are well written ... . Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students, researchers/faculty, and professionals." (R. Seelke, Choice, Vol. 51 (5), January, 2014)
"The present book, edited by recognized leaders in the field, is written by well-known scientists from 10 countries ... and covers various topics, such as the exploration, collection, characterization, evaluation and conservation of microorganisms to be used in agriculture, ecosystems, environments, industry and medicine. ... Both editors and contributors did a very good job ... . this book is very useful for readers belonging to different domains of science, readers at different career stages, from undergraduate level up to true specialist status." (Ioan I. Ardelean, Romanian Journal of Biochemistry, Vol. 50 (1), 2013)
