Short description:

This book examines protist-, animal- or plant-bacterial interactions and symbioses. These symbioses rely on continuous cell-to-cell communications. The goals of this book are to explore, explain and expose these dialogues across a broad spectrum of plant and animal eukaryotes to a broad field of biologists.

Long description:

This book examines how the growing knowledge of the huge range of protist-, animal-, and plant-bacterial interactions, whether in shared ecosystems or intimate symbioses, is fundamentally altering our understanding of biology. The establishment and maintenance of these interactions and their contributions to the health and survival of all partners relies on continuous cell-to-cell communication between them. This dialogue may be concerned with all aspects of the biology of both partners. The book includes chapters devoted to exploring, explaining, and exposing these dialogues across a broad spectrum of plant and animal eukaryotes to a broad field of biologists.

Key Features:

Explores the nature of the interactions between eukaryotic hosts and their microbial symbionts

Examines the links between prostist, animal, and plant evolution and microbial communities

Reviews specific taxa and the microbial diversity associated with these taxa

Illustrates the role microbes play in the physiology and etiology of several model species

Includes chapters by an international team of leading scholars

"This book describes the cell biology of the 21st century, where nutrition, immunity, and development are the efforts of a multispecies team that function together as an "individual." There is currently no better place to find the new paths that are leading to an exciting and more ecological perspective on cells and their evolution."　 Scott Gilbert (Swarthmore College)
