The discipline of microbiology that deals with an amazingly diverse
group of simple organisms, such as viruses, archaea, bacteria,
algae, fungi, and protozoa, is an exciting field of Science.
Starting as a purely descriptive field, it has transformed into a
truly experimental and interdisciplinary science inspiring a number
of investigators to generate th a wealth of information on the
entire gamut of microbiology. The later part of 20 century has been
a golden era with molecular information coming in to unravel
interesting insights ofthe microbial world. Ever since they were
brought to light through a pair of ground glasses by the Dutchman,
Antony van Leeuwenhoek, in later half of 17th century, they have
been studied most extensively throughout the next three centuries,
and are still revealing new facets of life and its functions. The
interest in them, therefore, continues even in the 21 st century.
Though they are simple, they provide a wealth of information on
cell biology, physiology, biochemistry, ecology, and genetics and
biotechnology. They, thus, constitute a model system to study a
whole variety of subjects. All this provided the necessary impetus
to write several valuable books on the subject of microbiology.
While teaching a course of Microbial Genetics for the last 35 years
at Delhi University, we strongly felt the need for authentic
compiled data that could give exhaustive background information on
each of the member groups that constitute the microbial world.
