Metagenomics: application of genomics to uncultured microorganisms.
Metagenomics (also referred to as environmental and community genomics) is the genomic analysis of microorganisms by direct extraction and cloning of DNA from an assemblage of microorganisms. The development of metagenomics stemmed from the ineluctable evidence that as-yet-uncultured microorganisms represent the vast majority of organisms in most environments on earth. This evidence was derived...
متن کاملBridging mycorrhizal genomics, metagenomics and forest ecology.
After an initial lag phase dedicated to the sequencing of easily cultured saprotrophic fungi (among the first three published genomes were the models Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Neurospora crassa) and species of biomedical, agricultural or biotechnological interest, genomics is now poised to rapidly permeate the fields of fungal ecology and evolution. As regards myco...
متن کاملMetagenomics: advances in ecology and biotechnology.
This review highlights the significant advances which have been made in prokaryotic ecology and biotechnology due to the application of metagenomic techniques. It is now possible to link processes to specific microorganisms in the environment, such as the detection of a new phototrophic process in marine bacteria, and to characterise the metabolic cooperation which takes place in mixed species ...
متن کاملDiversity and ecology of psychrophilic microorganisms.
Cold environments represent the majority of the biosphere on Earth and have been successfully colonized by psychrophilic microorganisms that are able to thrive at low temperatures and to survive and even maintain metabolic activity at subzero temperatures. These microorganisms play key ecological roles in their habitats and include a wide diversity of representatives of all three domains (Bacte...
متن کاملGut Microbiota: Metagenomics to Study Complex Ecology
The microbial community of the gastrointestinal tract is large and complex, making it difficult to study; the recent development of techniques for metagenomic analysis of gut microbiota should be a boon to the field.
