Description matérielle : 1 online resource
Note(s) : Notes bibliogr. Index
This book presents an up-to-date review of the ecology of yeast communities in natural
ecosystems. It focuses on their biological interactions, including mutualism, parasitism,
commensalism and antagonistic interactions, and is closely connected with the volume
Yeasts in Natural Ecosystems: Diversity by the same editors. Yeasts are the smallest
eukaryotic organisms successfully growing under a wide range of environmental conditions.
They constantly modify the environment through their own metabolic activities. Although
yeasts are among the earlier colonizers of nutrient-rich substrates, their role in
ecosystem processes is not limited to the consumption and transformation of simple
sugars. They also engage in close relationships with animals, plants and other fungi
in the environment as mutualists, competitors, parasites and pathogens. This book
reviews the diversity of biological interactions and roles of yeasts in ecosystems
and summarises recent concepts and tools developed in community ecology. 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 ecology
