MICROBIAL PHYSIOLOGY AND GENETICS

Microbial physiology is the study of microbial structure and function, in particular, how microbial activity responds to changes in the environment. It is therefore the key to controlling detrimental aspects of microbes, and to exploiting them for the good of the human race. This book includes a review of the structure and biosynthesis of bacterial and fungal cells, their key metabolic processes and their quest for food. You will also study microbial growth, genome organization and the structure and mechanisms of DNA transfer.
