Significance of microbial interactions in control of microbial ecosystems

摘要: A microbial ecosystem represents a delicately balanced population of microorganisms each interacting with and influencing the other members population. An understanding nature effects these interactions is essential to improving performance ecologies, which are important, in such diverse processes as biological waste treatment procedures, water pollution abatement, industrial fermentations, human or animal digestives soil. There several types mocrobial interactions, commensalism, inhibition, food competition, predation, parasitism, synergism, either singly combination may influence functioning ecology. To understand it necessary perform detailed study physiology individual predominating establish their requirements respect environmental factors nutrients, temperature, pH, oxidation-reduction potential, removal products, toxic materials be involved control determine how affect capabilities. The sum total this information will indicate possible between form basis for conducting experiments laboratory mathematical models. Such lead an activities formulation measures, often using alteration regulation ecologies. Extensive research remains done on interact inns obtain desired, precise ecological processes.
