Abstract/Summary

When Jo Handelsman first coined the term Metagenomics in 1998 (Handelsman et al., 1998), who would of foreseen the rapid progression of a clonal-based research technology handling hundreds of thousands of base pairs to the goliath sequencing efforts that are routinely applied today? Metagenomics, or community-based genome sequencing and analysis, has come of age.
