It offers an overview of the knowledge accumulated in the course of more than 60 years of research and is closely connected with the volume \u003ci\u003eYeasts in Natural Ecosystems: Ecology\u003c\/i\u003e by the same editors. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn view of the rapid decline of many natural habitats due to anthropogenic activities and climate change, the need to study biodiversity is pressing. Rising temperatures threaten species inhabiting cold and aquatic environments, and species in terrestrial ecosystems are endangered by habitat fragmentation or loss. Most of our knowledge of intrinsic properties (autoecology) of yeasts reported throughout this book is derived from laboratory experiments with pure cultures. Accordingly, the importance of culture collections for ecological studies is highlighted by presenting an overview of worldwide available yeast strains and their origins. All of the chapters were written by leading international yeast research experts, and will appeal to researchers and advanced students in the field of microbial diversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProf. Dr. Pietro Buzzini, Industrial Yeasts Collection DBVPG, Department of Agricultural, Borgo XX Giugno 74, 06121\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003ePerugia, Italy\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eProf. Dr. Marc-André Lachance, University of Western Ontario, Department of Biology, 1151 Richmond St, London\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eN6A 5B7, Canada\u003c\/p\u003e  Dr. Andrey Yurkov, Leibniz-Institut DSMZ, Inhoffenstr. 7B, 38124 Braunschweig, Germany\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 May 2018\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer International Publishing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783319873701\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e499\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53275441463436,"sku":"9783319873701","price":224.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319873701.jpg?v=1787234457","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783319873701","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
