(Endo)symbiotic Methanogenic Archaea

(Endo)symbiotic Methanogenic Archaea edited by Johannes H.P. Hackstein.

This updated monograph deals with methanogenic endosymbionts of anaerobic protists, in particular ciliates and termite flagellates, and with methanogens in the gastrointestinal tracts of vertebrates and arthropods. Further chapters discuss the genomic consequences of living together in symbiotic ass...
