ANIMAL MICROBIOLOGY provides a wide range of basic knowledge. This book consists of three parts namely; Bacteriology, Mycology and Virology. Each part contains an overview and several monographs. The overview introduces the basic theory of microbiology. Monograph introduces the biological characteristics, pathogenicity and detection techniques and preventive measures of important pathogenic microorganisms related to animal husbandry. The microorganisms described in this book are presently popular in animals all over the world. Based on the spirit of ‘one health, one medicine’, this book also introduces microbes that occur in both humans and animals. This book is helpful for undergraduates, post graduate students and faculties as well.

• • Easy and lucid language • Suitable for beginners interested in microorganism • Content is systematic, scientific and practical • Covers wide range such as; veterinary medicine, animal quarantine, animal pharmacy, animal husbandry, zoology, food science, agricultural and forestry science.
