Sommario/riassunto

"Handbook of Molecular Microbial Ecology I: Metagenomics and Complementary Approaches is the first comprehensive reference covering the various metagenomics in a large variety of habitats, which could not previously have been analysed without metagenomic methodology. This Volume includes topics such as species designations in microbiology, metagenomics, consortia and databases, bioinformatics, microarrays, and other metagenomics applications. This reference is ideal for researchers in metagenomics, microbiology, environmental microbiology, those working on the Human Microbiome Project, microbial geneticists, molecular microbiology, and bioinformatics"--

"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 for people in the field and those who would like to enter it"--
