This book is the self-contained third volume of a comprehensive
series on nitrogen fixation. It presents the state-of-the-art in
regards to genomic sciences applied to nitrogen-fixation research.
The advent of genomic sciences represents a new era for biology.
The classic paradigm based on the gene has now changed to a
paradigm that is based on the genome. The knowledge of the complete
nucleotide sequence of a genome and its consequences with regard to
both transcription and translation lead to an integral and
comprehensive view of the biochemistry and physiology of an
organism. Moreover, comparative genomic studies provide new
insights for a better understanding of the evolutionary process.
Nitrogen-fixation research has fully entered the genomics era since
the first complete nucleotide sequences of a rhizobial symbiotic
plasmid and a methanogenic archaeon were first reported in 1997.
Now, the complete nucleotide sequences of many genomes of
nitrogen-fixing organism from different taxonomic groups are
available. This volume includes chapters devoted to the genomes of
specific organisms as well as chapters that cross organismal lines
and analyse general aspects centred on functional genomics, genome
dynamics, taxonomy, and evolution. No other available work provides
the up-to-date and in-depth coverage of this volume, which is
intended to serve as an indispensable reference work for academic,
governmental, and industrial scientists working in the areas of
genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics, including those studying
evolution and taxonomy; to assist students to enter this
challenging area of research; and to provide science administrators
with ready access to vital relevantinformation.
