Because of production costs, microbial oils probably won't replace vegetable oils for general use; but designer oils for specific industrial and nutritional purposes are on the horizon using bacteria, fungi, yeast, and microalgae as production organisms. The ability to manipulate microbial culture conditions and genetically modify the organisms means that oils can be developed to fit particular applications. These 16 contributions discussing current research would be enhanced by an index. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
