"Sex in Microorganisms" presents the proceedings of a symposium held on December 30, 1951, at the Philadelphia meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. This collection of papers explores the then-current understanding of sexual processes in microorganisms. Featuring contributions from leading scientists of the time, the book offers insights into early research in microbial genetics and cell biology.

While the field has advanced significantly since its original publication, this volume remains a valuable historical resource for those interested in the development of microbiology and the study of genetic exchange in simple organisms. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the scientific questions and methodologies that shaped our current knowledge.
