内容説明

The first section of this volume focuses on the molecular mechanisms promoting and limiting the generation of genetic variation and gives a number of important, well-researched examples of the effects of genomic changes in pathogenic bacteria. The middle part of this book is devoted to host-parasite interactions. The activity of some genes is needed for survival and multiplication in the host. Five chapters demonstrate the powerful methods available to study host-parasite interactions. The third and final section of this publication deals with population genetics and clonal spread.
