Prokaryotic Development (Hardcover)

,
Research on bacterial development has progressed at an impressive pace in the past ten years. This book describes the exciting advances that have occurred as a result of the transition from the almost purely genetic to the molecular analysis of bacterial development. Prokaryotic Development focuses on the experimental systems in which a great deal is known about the molecular mechanisms of development. It devotes several chapters to the organisms that have yielded the most mechanistic information, allowing more in-depth coverage of developmental processes than previously available in one place. Introductory chapters describe the biology of each group of organisms in order to place the molecular analysis in a biological and phylogenic perspective. Accessible to advanced undergraduate and graduate students, this volume will be especially helpful in courses dealing with microbial diversity and microbial development. It provides an excellent introduction to current research on prokaryotic development to new investigators, and will be a useful reference for more experienced researchers. This title is published by the American Society of Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories.
