MICROBIAL GENOMICS AND PROTEOMICS

The increasing number of available genomes for fungi and bacteria shows that the genetic potential for decomposition of organic matter is widespread among taxonomically diverse microbial taxa, while expression studies document the importance of the regulation of expression in decomposition efficiency. Importantly, high-throughput methods of nucleic acid analysis used for the analysis of metagenomes and metatranscriptomes indicate the high diversity of decomposer communities in natural habitats and their taxonomic composition. Today, the metaproteomics of natural habitats is of interest. This book explores the products of decomposition and the accumulation of information on the genomes of environmentally relevant microorganisms, advanced methods in microbial ecophysiology.
