Sommario/riassunto

The Enterobacteria, 2nd Edition provides a comprehensive examination of current research on every genus in the family Enterobacteriaceae. A host of diagnostic tables, reference charts, color plates, and various other laboratory resources, this revised reference is an important source of information for microbiologists, lab directors, pathologists, and infectious disease specialists. The Enterobacteria, 2nd Edition presents complete medical information on each genus, including taxonomy, epidemiology, infectious disease spectrum, identification, pathogenicity, and antimicrobial susceptibility. Additionally, this new volume presents unique information on procedures and protocols for identification of atypical or unusual variants of each species. Select new features of the second edition are use of the genome sequence as a



means of identification and classification, coverage of the reclassified genus Plesiomonas, and a brand-new appendix containing differential biochemical tables.

Sommario/riassunto

This book is a lab manual which can be integrated with bioinformatics course. The field of bioinformatics is advancing at a remarkable rate. With the development of new analytical techniques that make use of the latest advances in machine learning and data science, today’s biologists are gaining fantastic new insights into the natural world’s most complex systems. This book includes a lab-based manual that can assist students handling large biological data. It aims to help students and researchers understand (1) the importance of horizontal transfer in the spread of antibiotic resistance, and in biology more broadly; (2) how protein and nucleic acid sequences are used to determine phylogenetic trees and the genetic relationship between organisms; (3) how sequence comparisons can be used to infer protein function; and (4) how to analyze high-throughput sequencing data to do gene expression analysis. This book is valuable for researchers, teachers and students, as well as any readers who are interested in bioinformatics.
