Advances in Microbial Physiology, Volume 88 explores the latest research and developments in microbial physiology, providing a comprehensive overview on how microorganisms function, adapt, and interact with their environments. This volume brings together leading experts to discuss fundamental processes such as metabolism, growth, gene regulation, signal transduction, stress responses, and cellular differentiation in bacteria, archaea, and fungi. Chapters cover Steroids as Antibacterials, From Feeding Cell to Fruiting Body: Multidrug Transport in the Life cycle of Dictyostelium discoideum, Evolution of xenobiotic catabolism, Glycyl-radical enzymes, How anaerobes cope with oxygen, and Extracellular Electron Transfer: From Early Life to Modern Biogeochemistry and Applications.

• Explores the latest research and developments in microbial physiology, including both fundamental concepts and emerging topics
• Written by leading experts in the field, providing authoritative insights and analysis
• Examines mechanisms of microbial adaptation, regulation of gene expression, and responses to environmental changes
