The two aims of this introductory textbook are to (1) discuss--in simple terms--the concepts and experimental strategies of research into genetic recombination, and to (2) demonstrate how the different types of recombination (homologous, site-specific, transpositional and illegitimate) are related. For upper-level undergraduates, this book is a comprehensive guide to this traditionally challenging and increasingly important field. 
<ul> <li>One of the most difficult yet important areas in modern biology explained in a lucid and up to date manner. 
</li> <li>Relates abstract genetic ideas to concrete experimental reality. 
</li> <li>The only available textbook treatment of this important subject.</li> </ul>

Presents the latest molecular studies of virulence, colonization, gene regulation, and the O1 antigen. Gives an in-depth and analytical approach to the epidemiology of cholera that includes outbreak investigations, case-control studies, and surveillance functions. Describes the molecular approach to epidemiologic problems and questions. Tracks the global spread of cholera by genetically defining individual strains. Addresses possible intervention and prevention strategies, including the latest vaccines, and their public health relevance. This title is published by the American Society of Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories.

Vibrio Cholerae And Cholera: Molecular to Global Perspectives

This volume offers a comprehensive overview of the progress in our understanding the microbial pathogenesis of important bacterial pathogens and also offers insights into how these advances have been made via use of recombinant DNA and other molecular techniques. Dr. Stanley Falkow stimulated much of this research through his own work and that of his students. Dr. Falkow's achievements include seminal discoveries on the nature of plasmids and transposons encoding antibiotic resistance, developing the first DNA probes for the diagnosis of bacterial infections, and being one of the first scientists to study the interactions of a wide variety of bacterial pathogens and host cells. 
 The introductory chapters and selections in Part 1 depict the state of the art at the time when Dr. Falkow and his staff first began their investigations in the 1960s, describe how key experiments arose, and give a flavor of the laboratory environment at that time. The 29 chapters in Parts 2 through 6 are topical reviews of key areas of molecular pathogenesis currently under investigation by alumni of the Falkow laboratory. All of the scientists contributing to this book worked in Dr. Falkow's laboratory.

Molecular Genetics of Bacterial Pathogenesis: A Tribute to Stanley Falkow (ASM)

This is the long-awaited second edition of an invaluable classic! Escherichia coli occupies a central role in contemporary molecular biology. It is the unicellular organism about which most is known - all molecular and cellular biologists will want a copy of this book. In 154 chapters, 250 expert authors and editors present the state of the art. Completely rewritten and restructured, the second edition offers a whole new approach to the subject.

Escherichia coli and Salmonella: Cellular and Molecular Biology (2 Volumes)

The enteroviruses cause between 10 and 15 million symptomatic infections in the U.S. each year, ranging in severity from the common cold to overwhelming neonatal sepsis and death. The enteroviruses are leading causes of meningitis, encephalitis, poliomyelitis, myocarditis, and nonspecific febrile illnesses of newborns and young infants. Enteroviruses have also been implicated in the etiology of chronic diseases such as inflammatory myositis, diabetes mellitus, dilated cardiomyopathy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, chronic fatigue syndrome, and post- poliomyelitis muscular atrophy.

ASM Press is proud to publish this volume in honor of Nobel Prize winning virologist, Howard Temin. Temin's pioneering scientific achievements in elucidating the fundamentals of retroviruses laid the ground work for our present understanding of the molecular basis of both cancer and HIV. Few advances in contemporary molecular biology have been as significant or as controversial as Howard Temin's initial proposal of the DNA provirus hypothesis that turned molecular biology's central dogma on its head. This title is published by the American Society of Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories.
