Thermophiles: The Keys to Molecular Evolution and the Origin of Life?
- Collection : Prof Jim Green
- Publisher : Taylor & Francis
- Illustrations : text figs
Description:
An important late twentieth-century collection on thermophilic and hyperthermophilic microorganisms and their implications for molecular evolution and theories of the origin of life. Bringing together leading research on Archaea, Bacteria, molecular phylogeny, thermostable enzymes and early cellular evolution, the work reflects the rapid expansion of extremophile research during the 1980s and 1990s and the growing recognition that organisms inhabiting high-temperature environments might provide clues to some of the deepest branches of the evolutionary tree.
