These emphasize the use\nof modernmethodologies for the detection of recombinant\nbacteria in natural waters   and soil, using DNA or rRNA\nprobes and PCR technology. The three following  sections deal\nwith various aspects of gene transfer in                      aquatic\nenvironments, terrestrial habitats and human and animal             gut.\nThese include transfer of plasmidic or chromosomal markers\nthrough either conjugation, mobilization, transformation or\ntransduction processes. Also covered are factors influencing\nsurvival of cells harbouring the       transferred genes in these\nenvironments. The last section is devoted to an  examination\nof scientific and ethical problems related to the release       of\ngenetically engineered microorganisms.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2011-12-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642774522\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-642-77450-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 205\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398847328396,"sku":"9783642774522","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642774522.jpg?v=1755445449","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783642774522","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
