Microbial metagenomics: beyond the genome.

Annual review of marine science - 1 Jan 2011

Gilbert Jack A, Dupont Christopher L

Abstract excerpt

Metagenomics literally means "beyond the genome." Marine microbial metagenomic databases presently comprise approximately 400 billion base pairs of DNA, only approximately 3% of that found in 1 ml of seawater. Very soon a trillion-base-pair sequence run will be feasible, so it is time to reflect on what we have learned from metagenomics. We review the impact of metagenomics on our understanding of marine...
