Prokaryotic Genomics

by Michel Blot (Editor)

Overview

Prokaryotic Genomics provides molecular microbiologists in particular and researchers working with bacteria in general with the most important established recipes needed for their work. The volume covers both revisited classical methods and new tools for global analysis such as genomics or proteomics. It is written for those in need of a bench manual to complete their experiments and for those wanting to understand the modern tools used in microbiology.
