Taxonomy, Genomics and Ecophysiology of Hydrocarbon-Degrading Microbes [electronic resource] /
McGenity, Terry J.editor.
This book provides comprehensive, authoritative descriptions of the microbes involved in cleaning up oil spills and degrading climate-altering hydrocarbons such as methane, and has detailed discussions about the taxonomy, ecology, genomics, physiology and global significance of these hydrocarbon-degrading microbes.
