This volume details a wide range of basic and advanced techniques associated with research on isolation of important soil protozoa, and identification. Chapters guide readers through calculations of soil protists, basic techniques for isolation, enumeration, enrichment, molecular techniques, and staining techniques.

Authoritative and cutting-edge, Practical Handbook on Soil Protists aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.
