Description
Functional Microbial Genomics, edited by two leading experts in the field, provides the researcher with an up-to-date
collection of articles on post-genome technologies central to studying the function of microorganisms.
Since the release of the first
complete genome sequence of a free-living organism in 1995, over 100 microbial genomes have been completely sequenced. The advent of
new technologies for post-genomic analyses has allowed the rapid exploitation of this genome sequence information, heralding a golden
era in microbial research.
Functional Microbial Genomics provides in-depth accounts from scientists working with these
new technologies explaining both the techniques and the ways in which they have been applied to the study of gene function in different
microbial species.
Methods in Microbiology is the most prestigious series devoted to techniques and methodology in
the field. Established for over 30 years,
Methods in Microbiology will continue to provide you with tried and tested,
cutting edge protocols to directly benefit your research.
