Abstract: | Examines diversity of polar microorganisms and their ability to degrade petroleum hydrocarbon contaminants in polar terrestrial and aquatic environments. Focuses on taxonomy, physiology, biochemistry, population structure, bioremediation potential and potential for biotechnology applications. Provides complete coverage of microbiology relevant to study of biodiversity and degradation of pollutants in Arctic and Antarctic. |
