Pollutant effects on the microbial ecosystem.

Environmental health perspectives - 1 Dec 1994

Abstract excerpt

Genetic diversity of a microbial community will inevitably be affected by environmental stress. However, our understanding of the implications of these effects is limited. Genetic exchange between natural microbial communities appears to be a common phenomenon, mediated by a number of microbial processes (conjugation, transformation, and transduction). These mechanisms of change are presumably adaptations to...
