From the Editors

Abstract

This is the last Microbiology Australia issue for 2009. The Editorial Board works hard to ensure that there is an array of topics of interest for ASM members and this year’s issues provide examples of the diversity of our discipline. The first issue (March) focused on the Microbiology of water reuse and alternative supplies. This topic not only remains a high priority for Australia, but its importance continues to increase, as our population grows and our water supplies decrease in many areas.
