This is a reference work both for people in the field and those who would like to enter it. Two volume set covers topics including: Volume One Species designations in microbiology Metagenomics Consortia and databases Bioinformatics Microarrays Other -omics applications Volume Two Viral genomes Metagenomics studies in a variety of habitats, including marine, soil, and the digestive tract Biodegradation Biocatalysts and natural products
