About this ebook
Brock Biology of Microorganisms, 16th Edition by Michael T. Madigan, Kelly S. Bender, Daniel H. Buckley, W. Matthew Sattley, and David A. Stahl covers the foundational and cutting-edge principles of microbiology across six major themes and 26 comprehensive chapters. [1, 2, 3]
Six Major Core Themes
  • Evolution: The diversification of microbial life and phylogenetic history.
  • Cell Structure and Function: Anatomy, membrane transport, and the architecture of microbial cells.
  • Metabolic Pathways: Energy generation, respiration, photosynthesis, and biosynthesis.
  • Information Flow and Genetics: DNA replication, transcription, translation, and gene regulation.
  • Microbial Systems: Microbial ecology, communities, and interactions within ecosystems.
  • Impact of Microorganisms: Pathogenesis, immunology, industrial biotechnology, and human/environmental applications.
Major Unit Breakdown
  • Unit 1: Principles of Microbiology (Introduction, microbial life history, and basic tools)
  • Unit 2: Cell Structure and Function (Chemistry, membranes, structure, and motility)
  • Unit 3: Metabolism and Energetics (Catabolism, anabolism, and metabolic regulation)
  • Unit 4: Molecular Biology and Genetics (Genomics, gene expression, and genetic exchange)
  • Unit 5: Microbial Diversity (Bacteria, Archaea, and microbial eukaryotes)
  • Unit 6: Ecology and Environmental Microbiology (Biogeochemical cycles and ecosystems)
  • Unit 7: Infectious Disease and Immunity (Pathogenicity, clinical microbiology, and immune responses) [1]
