Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This volume provides a valuable insight into many of the recent developments in this broad field and their biomedical or biotechnological relevance. Topics include quorum and anti-quorum sensing, selected symbioses, DNA shuffling in the environment, the evolution and development of novel motility mechanisms, hydrocarbon degradation, the interactions of microbes with metals, and adaptations of extremes of pressure and temperature.

The reviews published in this book were originally presented as a written symposium in the Journal of Molecular Microbiology and Biotechnology, Vol.1, No.1 (August 1999).

Includes bibliographical references and index.
