Questions for microbial ecology 1. What is Microbial Ecology and What do microbial ecologists study? 2. What is a microevironment? 3. Describe biofilms and their functions and significance in practical applications 4. What are the factors affecting microbial ecology? 5. List methods commonly used to study microbial ecology

Methods in Microbial Ecology Microbial ecology focus on two major issues: (1) biodiversity, including the isolation, identification, and quantification of microorganisms in various habitats, and (2) microbial activity, that is, what are microorganisms doing in their habitats. We begin here with a consideration of assessing biodiversity through enrichment and isolation, and then consider nonculture methods of identification
