It provides the readers a concise resource describing factors that are critical for several different predatory microbes, including Myxobacterium spp. and Bdellovibrio­-and-like organisms (BALOs), including the mechanisms involved, ecological conditions that adversely impact it and potential applications in aquaculture and bioproduction. The first half of this collection focuses more on ecological aspects of predation, with in-depth discussions on ?wolf pack? predators, the presence and activities of predators in waste-water treatment plants and the role of intraguild predatory relationships, i.e., when two different predators are competing for a single prey but also interact with one another. The reader will gain a deeper understanding of the predatory mechanisms involved and their ecological roles. In the latter half, emphasis is given more to the application and limitations of predators. In addition to discussing secondary metabolite production within different microbial predators, the readers will also learn how predators are being used to purify secondary metabolites from prey. This section also discusses the expanding and promising role of predation in aquaculture, focusing on the application of predators to reduce pathogenic populations, but includes some important caveats for young researchers to consider and follow when working with Bdellovibrio. This work is written for both experienced researchers already in the field and for young scientists who are captivated by the thought of predation at the microscale and its growing importance within a wide-array of fields. . 606 $aMicrobial ecology 606 $aMarine sciences 606 $aFreshwater 606 $aWater pollution 606 $aMicrobial Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19082 606 $aMarine & Freshwater Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U36000 606 $aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35040 606 $aPredació (Biologia)$2thub 606 $aEcologia microbiana$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aMicrobial ecology. 615 0$aMarine sciences. 615 0$aFreshwater. 615 0$aWater pollution. 615 14$aMicrobial Ecology. 615 24$aMarine & Freshwater Sciences. 615 24$aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution. 615 7$aPredació (Biologia) 615 7$aEcologia microbiana 676 $a579.17 702 $aJurkevitch$b Edouard$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMitchell$b Robert J$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910409686403321 996 $aThe Ecology of Predation at the Microscale$92495846 997 $aUNINA
