 | Molecular Microbial Ecology of the Rhizosphere A closer scientific look at the world's tiniest creatures, microbes, in the soil The rhizosphere is the soil area impacted by plant root systems and microorganisms. This book, Molecular Microbial Ecology of the Rhizosphere, Volume 2 , is organized into various sections covering plant-mediated structuring of bacterial communities in the rhizosphere; metagenomics and the soil/rhizospher; plant genetics and rhizobacterial communities; symbiotic plant-microbe interactions; and other topics. Frans J. de Bruijn received his Ph.D. (Cellular and Developmental Biology; Microbial Genetics) from Harvard University in 1983. His resume reflects an array of experiences as a teacher, researcher, board member and a plethora of other accomplishments. He is currently Director of Research at the Laboratory for Plant-Microbe Interactions in Toulouse, France |
