Microbiota are a promising and fascinating subject in biology because they integrate the microbial communities in humans animals plants and the environment. In humans microbiota are associated with the gut skin and genital oral and respiratory organs. The plant microbial community is referred to as holobiont and it is influential in the maintenance and health of plants which themselves play a role in animal health and the environment. The contents of Microbiome-Host Interactions cover all areas as well as new research trends in the fields of plant animal human and environmental microbiome interactions. The book covers microbiota in polar soil environments in health and disease in Caenorhabditis elegans and in agroecosystems as well as in rice root and actinorhizal root nodules speleothems and marine shallow-water hydrothermal vents. Moreover this book provides comprehensive accounts of advanced next-generation DNA sequencing metagenomic techniques high-throughput 16S rRNA sequencing and understanding nucleic acid sequence data from fungal algal viral bacterial cyanobacterial actinobacterial and archaeal communities using QIIME software (Quantitative Insights into Microbial Ecology). FEATURES Summarizes recent insight in microbiota and host interactions in distinct habitats including Antarctic hydrothermal vents speleothems oral skin gut feces reproductive tract soil root root nodules forests and mangroves Illustrates the high-throughput amplicon sequencing computational techniques involved in the microbiota analysis downstream analysis and visualization and multivariate analysis commonly used for microbiome analysis Describes probiotics and prebiotics in the composition of the gut microbiota skin microbiome impact in dermatologic disease prevention and microbial communities in the reproductive tract of humans and animals Presents information in a reachable way for students teachers researchers microbiologists computational biologists and other professionals who are interested in strengthening or enlarging their knowledge about microbiome analysis with next-generation DNA sequencing in the different branches of the sciences

You can always find the postage cost and estimated delivery date in a seller’s listing. You'll then be able to see a full list of delivery options during checkout. These can include: Express delivery, Standard delivery, Economy delivery, Click & Collect, Free local collection from seller.
Your options for returning an item vary depending on what you want to return, why you want to return it, and the seller's return policy. If the item is damaged or doesn't match the listing description, you can return it even if the seller's returns policy says they don't accept returns. If you've changed your mind and no longer want an item, you can still request a return, but the seller doesn't have to accept it. If the buyer changes their mind about a purchase and wants to return an item, they may need to pay return postage costs, depending on the seller's return policy. Sellers can provide a return postage address and additional return postage information for the buyer. Sellers pay for return postage if there's a problem with the item. For example, if the item doesn't match the listing description, is damaged or defective or is counterfeit. By law, customers in the European Union also have the right to cancel the purchase of an item within 14 days beginning from the day you receive, or a third party indicated by you (other than the carrier) receives, the last good ordered by you (if delivered separately). This applies to all products except for digital items (e.g. Digital Music) that are provided immediately to you with your acknowledgement, and other items such as video, DVD, audio, video games, Sex and Sensuality products and software products where the item has been unsealed.
Sellers have to offer a refund for certain items only if they are faulty, such as: Personalised items and custom-made items, Perishable items, Newspapers and magazines, Unwrapped CDs DVDs and computer software. If you used your PayPal balance or bank account to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your PayPal account balance. If you used a credit or debit card to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your card. The seller will effect the refund within three working days but it may take up to 30 days for Paypal to process the transfer. For payments funded partially by a card and partially by your balance/bank, the money taken from your card will go back to your card and the remainder will return to your PayPal balance.
