"This work contains the proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Microbial Growth on One-Carbon (C1) Compounds, a triennial meeting held at the University of Warwick in August 1992. The theme of the book centres around the microbiology of C1 compounds, that is, those compounds such as methane, methanol, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, and covers the physiology, biochemistry and molecular genetics of the micro-organisms responsible for utilizing such compounds. It also addresses a number of important ecological and environmental aspects of C1 microbes, organisms which are certain to play a role in the cycling of important greenhouse-gases such as carbon dioxide and methane. The impact of these organisms on a global scale, for example, as a source or sink for methane is discussed. The numerous applied and biotechnological aspects of these micro-organisms is also dealt with in detail.".…
