Miller & Martin J. Day. 330 $aAn essential introductory overview of the field of bacterial evolution. Covers fundamental topics crucial to the understanding of microbial evolution. Presents significant technological changes of the past decade, with discussion of and reference to the newest techniques employed in the field. Contains a selection of study questions after each chapter, and each section concludes with a chapter summarizing highlights and themes presented in that section. Includes general references for further reading suggestions, historical references, and specific references citing papers in a given subject area. Serves as a text for students in the fields of microbiology and related life sciences, and as a resource for practicing microbiologists. 606 $aMicroorganisms$xEvolution 615 0$aMicroorganisms$xEvolution. 676 $a579.138 700 $aMiller$b Robert V.$0146388 702 $aDay$b Martin J. 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910830147003321 996 $aMicrobial Evolution$93984810 997 $aUNINA
