Macrogenome sequencing
Macrogenomic sequencing aims to sequence the genomes of microbial communities in specific environmental samples in order to analyse the genetic composition and function of microbial communities, to decipher the diversity and abundance of microbial communities, explore the relationship between microbes and their environment, microbes and hosts, and discover and study new genes with specific functions. Macrogenomics is a new approach to study microbial diversity, population structure, evolutionary relationships, functional activity, interactions and relationships with the environment, using the genome of the microbial community in environmental samples as the object of study and functional gene screening and/or sequencing as the means of study. This technique can be used to unravel the diversity and abundance of microbial populations, explore the relationships between microbes and their environment, microbes and their hosts, and discover and study new, functionally specific genes.
