The first book to explore the implications of symbiosis defensive compounds in drug and natural product discovery, Defensive Mutualism in Microbial Symbiosis includes basic ecology and biological information on defensive mutualisms, explores how they function, and evaluates how they have evolved. It expands the concept of defensive mutualisms to evaluate defense against environmental abiotic and biotic stresses, and includes chapters on defens...

Although there is a general scientific consensus that endosymbionts represent a new frontier for drug discovery, this book is the first to explore that possibility. It also takes the novel approach of expanding the concept of defensive mutualisms to evaluate defense against environmental abiotic and biotic stresses. In addressing the topic of defensive mutualisms in microbial symbiosis across this wide spectrum, it includes chapters on defensi...
