New Frontiers in Soil Microbiology: How To Link Structure and Function of Microbial Communities?; Chemical Structure of Organic N and Organic P in Soil; Nucleic Acid Extraction from Soil; Role of Stabilised Enzymes in Microbial Ecology and Enzyme Extraction from Soil with Potential Applications in Soil Proteomics; Soil Proteomics: Extraction and Analysis of Proteins from Soils; The Various Sources and the Fate of Nucleic Acids in Soil; Stabilization of Extracellular DNA and Proteins by Transient Binding to Various Soil Components
Summary
Combines traditional approaches in soil microbiology and biochemistry with techniques in molecular microbial ecology. This book includes methods to analyse the presence and importance of nucleic acids and proteins both inside and outside microbial cells, the horizontal gene transfer which drives bacterial diversity, as well as soil proteomes
