This book presents new and important research on environmental microbiology which is area of interaction that studies the interaction of microorganisms with the environment. It includes the structure, activities and communal behaviour of microbial communities, microbial interactions and interactions with plants, animals and non-living environmental factors, population biology and clonal structure microbes and surfaces, adhesion and biofouling responses to environmental signals and stress factors growth and survival, modelling and theory development, microbial community genetics and evolutionary processes, microbial physiological, metabolic and structural diversity, pollution microbiology, extremophiles and life in extreme and unusual little-explored habitats, primary and secondary production, element cycles and biogeochemical processes and microbially-influenced global changes.
Preface; Evolution of Symbiotic Bacteria in "Plant-soil" Systems: Interplay of Molecular and Population Mechanisms; Mixtures of Microorganisms in Biocontrol; Heavy Metals and Microorganisms in the Environment: Taking Advantage of Reciprocal Interactions for the Development of a Wastewater Treatment Process; Community Level Physiological Profiles as Influenced by Soil Management. Critical Considerations About their Interpretation; Endogenic and Anthropogenic Adsorption of Cu and Zn onto the Non-Residual and Residual Components in the Surficial Sediments (Natural Surface Coating Samples); Colonisation of Water Systems in the Built Environment of Northern Germany by Legionella spp; Improving Fecal Coliform Removal in Maturation Ponds; Antagonistic Effect of Microbially-Treated Mixture of Agro-industrial Wastes and Inorganic Insoluble Phosphate to Fusarium Wilt Disease; Fluorescence In Situ Hybridisation (FISH) in Aquatic Bacteria; Index.
