Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the mid-forties bacteria and phages were dis covered to be suitable objects for the study of genet ics. Genetic phenomena such as mutation and recombina tion, which had already been known in eukaryotes for a long time, were now shown to exist in bacteria and phages as well. New phenomena as lysogeny and trans duction were discovered, which gained great importance beyond the field of microbial genetics. Bacteria and phages are of small size, multiply rapid ly, and have chemically defined growth requirements. Many selective procedures can be applied to screen for rarely occurring mut.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The single most comprehensive and authoritative textbook on bacterial molecular genetics Snyder & Champness Molecular Genetics of Bacteria is a new edition of a classic text, updated to address the massive advances in the field of bacterial molecular genetics and retitled as homage to the founding authors. In an era experiencing an avalanche of new genetic sequence information, this updated edition presents important experiments and advanced material relevant to current applications of molecular genetics, including conclusions from and applications of genomics; the relationships among recombination, replication, and repair and the importance of organizing sequences in DNA; the mechanisms of regulation of gene expression; the newest advances in bacterial cell biology; and the coordination of cellular processes during the bacterial cell cycle. The topics are integrated throughout with biochemical, genomic, and structural information, allowing readers to gain a deeper understanding of modern bacterial molecular genetics and its relationship to other fields of modern biology. Although the text is centered on the most-studied bacteria, Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, many examples are drawn from other bacteria of experimental, medical, ecological, and biotechnological importance. The book's many useful features include Text boxes to help students make connections to relevant topics related to other organisms, including humans A summary of main points at the end of each chapter Questions for discussion and independent thought A list of suggested readings for background and further investigation in each chapter Fully illustrated with detailed diagrams and photos in full color A glossary of terms highlighted in the text While intended as an undergraduate or beginning graduate textbook, Molecular Genetics of Bacteria is an invaluable reference for anyone working in the fields of microbiology, genetics, biochemistry, bioengineering, medicine, molecular biology, and biotechnology. "This is a marvelous textbook that is completely up-to-date and comprehensive, but not overwhelming. The clear prose and excellent figures make it ideal for use in teaching bacterial molecular genetics." —Caroline Harwood, University of Washington

Download or read book Bacterial and Bacteriophage Genetics written by E. A. Birge and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended for the student who is taking a first course in bacterial and bacteriophage genetics, rather than as a reference tool for the specialist. It presumes a knowledge of basic biology as weIl as familiarity with general genetics. Extensive knowledge of microbiology, although helpful, is not essen tial for a good understanding of the material presented herein. In order to develop the basic concepts of bacterial and bacteriophage genetics in a volume of reasonable size, I have endeavored to avoid the stricdy molecular approach as weIl as the thoroughly comprehensive treatment characteristic of review articles. For simplification and continuity, therefore, I have dealt primarily with Escherichia coli and its phages, except where other bacteria can better illustrate a particular point. This should not, however, be construed to imply that only E. coli is worthy of study. Rather , it is my hope that students will be able to generalize from the principles presented in this book to the specific bacterial systems which may be of more direct interest to them.

Book excerpt: For many years there has been a need for an up-to-date advanced textbook on bacterial genetics. Genetics of Bacteria has been designed for this purpose. The text is primarily intended for students who are close to or already engaged in research involving bacteria. An introductory chapter has been included for newcomers to the field. Each chapter has a supplementary reading list and detailed references for the topic in question. The book covers all the major genetic aspects of bacteria, their plasmids, and phages mutation: gene transfer and recombination, the transposition of genetic elements, the mechanism and control of gene expression. Special emphasis is placed on "Escherichia coli." In addition, "Bacillus subtilis" is introduced, a Gram-positive organism which has unique features as a genetic system. For those wishing to study other bacteria a list of helpful references is provided at the end of Chapter One. From the Preface: Bacterial systems have several major roles to play in molecular biology. They contribute to the analysis of fundamental biological processes: mutation, replication, recombination and transposition, and the expression of genes and the processing of their products. In addition, bacteria occupy a pivotal position in recombinant DNA technology, allowing the genetic material of many organisms to be analyzed and expressed. Equally, genetic manipulation in vivo provides an approach in the analysis of genes and their products which complements both classical studies and in vitro cloning techniques. We discuss here the major aspects of manipulation in vivo including genetic fusions and the different kinds of transposable elements. This book should beparticularly valuable to gene cloners in this respect and as an account of the basic biology of the bacteria, phages, and plasmids commonly used in their work. The purpose of this book is to give an up-to-date account of the molecular genetics of bacteria for advanced students and new recruits to research using bacterial systems. To this end each chapter reviews a topic of central importance and provides a list of major references for those active in the field. We have not intended the lists to be exhaustive since we refer the reader to current review articles on specialist topics. For the benefit of new recruits we provide an introductory chapter discussing the basic concepts of bacterial genetics and the organization of phage The material presented is intended to illustrate the underlying principles in the field. It is based on the large body of work which has exploited the gram-negative organism Escherichia coli over the years. In addition, we introduce the gram-positive Bacillus subtilis which has unique features as a genetic system. Those wishing to study other bacteria will find a list of helpful references at the end of Chapter 1.
