Foreword
Microbiology is one of the leading branches of modern biology and is interdisciplinary in scope as it interfaces with various basic and applied disciplines of science, including but not limited to biology, chemistry, physics, agriculture, medicine, engineering, and environmental/atmospheric sciences. Consequently, the study of microbiology has been divided into several subspecialties such as agricultural microbiology, medical microbiology (bacteriology, virology, mycology, and parasitology), food/dairy microbiology, soil microbiology, environmental microbiology, microbial ecology, and microbial biotechnology, among others. The commonality among these subspecialties is the study of microorganisms, including prokaryotes (bacteria and viruses), eukaryotes (yeasts, fungi, algae, and protozoa), and archaea, which essentially requires the use of overlapping basic tools and techniques. Microorganisms interact with both living beings (plants, animals, and host microbes) and non
