Marine Biotechnology I

Pages: 288

Language: English
ISBN: 978-3540256598
Description
Marine organisms make up a very large collection of living beings, of which the number of species is likely to exceed that of land species by several orders of magnitude. However, the major interest in marine living systems is mainly linked to the exceptional diversity of molecular structures, of chemical interactions reflecting a long evolutionary history and also the fact that marine life spreads within multiple and complex three-dimensional spaces. From a very practical and trivial point of view, marine life can be seen as a huge reservoir of molecules which enable marine organisms to defend themselves, to communicate and, more generally, to survive and thrive.
