In short, it offers the most complete treatment of microbial biology available. Each chapter contains a detailed account of what is known about the microbes and how key discoveries were made, the latest advances in microbialomics, and future directions, many of which may inspire current undergraduate and graduate students in their own research in medicine, biotechnology, or environmental science"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aMicrobial diversity 606 $aMicrobial ecology 606 $aMicrobial biotechnology 606 $aMicroorganisms 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 0$aMicrobial diversity. 615 0$aMicrobial ecology. 615 0$aMicrobial biotechnology. 615 0$aMicroorganisms. 676 $a616.9/041 686 $aSCI045000$2bisacsh 700 $aBisen$b Prakash S$0956459 701 $aDebnath$b Mousumi$0956460 701 $aPrasad$b Godavarthi B.
