Estratto
Poiché le fonti alimentari dell’uomo sono di origine vegetale e animale, è importante comprendere i principi biologici dei microrganismi associati alle piante e agli animali nei loro habitat naturali e i rispettivi ruoli. Sebbene talvolta sembri che i microrganismi si sforzino di alterare le nostre fonti di cibo, infettando e distruggendo piante e animali, in realtà questo non è affatto il loro ruolo centrale in natura. Nella nostra attuale visione della vita su questo pianeta, la principale funzione dei microrganismi in natura è perpetuare la propria esistenza. Nel corso di questo processo, gli organismi eterotrofi e autotrofi svolgono la seguente reazione generale:
