β¦ Synopsis
"This book enables students to develop all the basic skills and experience all the wonderment of conducting a meaningful research project from start to finish, all within a one-semester laboratory course. Students learn to reconstruct the phylogeny of a unique soil-based microbial community by analyzing 16S rRNA genes. In the process, students discover new microbes, novel sequences, and previously unknown οΏ½Read more...
