Overview

Gain new insight on utilizing bacterial stress responses to better combat bacterial infection with antibiotics and improve biotechnology. Reviews the vast number of new findings that have greatly advanced the understanding of bacterial stress responses in the past 10 years. Explores general regulatory principles, including the latest findings from genomics studies, including new research findings on both specific and general stress responses. Details how stress responses affect the interactions between bacteria and host cells and covers bacterial stress responses in different niches and communities, with an emphasis on extreme environments. This title is published by the American Society of Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories.
