Microbial physiology includes the study of microbial metabolism, enzymology, cell envelopes, transport, responses to environmental fluctuations, growth, differentiation and other related processes. 850 primary members. Division K is part of Divisional Group IV (Molecular Microbiology, Physiology, and Virology) of the ASM. This divisional group also includes Divisions H (Genetics and Molecular Biology), J (Cell and Structural Biology), M (Bacteriophages), S (DNA viruses), T (RNA viruses), X (Molecular, Cellular and General Biology of Eukaryotes) and AA (Free-Living, Symbiotic and Parasitic Protists). |
