Abstract

Molecular microbial ecology could provide tools for studying the structure and function of biodegradative microbial communities useful for in situ removal of environmental pollutants. Detection and monitoring of released organisms in the environment is required and DNA:DNA colony hybridization seems to be one of the highly sensitive and accurate technologies available for achieving this goal. A realistic and pragmatic view is required for analysis of the risks of environmental release of genetically-modified or engineered organisms.
