The Microbial Genetic Algorithm
2011We analyse how the conventional Genetic Algorithm can be stripped down and reduced to its basics. We present a minimal, modified version that can be interpreted in terms of horizontal gene transfer, as in bacterial conjugation. Whilst its functionality is effectively similar to the conventional version, it is much easier to program, and recommended for

The Genetic and Microbial Influences in Obesity
2018Patients have been told for decades that weight gain and weight loss were the product of a simple energy balance equation. However, despite factoring in both body and organ size and composition, a 20% unexplained difference in resting energy expenditure exists between individuals.

Applied Aspects of Microbial Genetics
1970For a long time microbiologists held the opinion, that they could solve all of the problems connected with research on microorganisms without the support of any allied sciences, including genetics. The main thesis of such a point of view was that microorganisms are not subject to mutational change but that variation in microorganisms is based on direct

Review of Microbial Physiology and Genetics [PDF]
The first portion of this section will deal with bacteria and fungi, their structure, chemical composition, and metabolism. This will be followed by a discussion of chemotherapeutic agents that are active against bacteria, fungi and animal parasites. The second section will deal with Basic Virology (viral structure, classification, replication and the ...

Molecular Genetics and Microbial Fermentations
1981The interaction of the field of molecular genetics, especially the part of it termed recombinant DNA technology, with the business of large-scale microbial fermentations is a subject much in the news these days. From the reaction of Wall Street to the recent and prospective public offerings of genetic engineering companies, one would think these ...

The genetic engineering of microbial solvent production
Trends in Biotechnology, 1995Although the production of acetone and butanol by Clostridium strains was a thriving industrial fermentation process, it is no longer competitive with the chemical synthesis of solvents and has been discontinued. However, studies on the molecular biology of Clostridium strains suggest that genetic engineering for improved solvent production is feasible,

Basic Principles of Microbial Genetics
1987The genetic study of microbes has played a highly significant role in the recent developments in molecular biology, recombinant DNA technology and the preparation of useful products such as insulin, human growth hormone and blood clotting factors. It was no coincidence that the first artificially-produced hybrid DNA was constructed using bacterial ...
