Abstract/Summary

Microorganisms have traditionally accelerated the study of ecology and evolution owing to their relatively short generation times and astronomical population sizes. Indeed, their potential in helping us to understand the mechanisms behind many biological phenomena is enormous, for example, in the modification of climate-active gases. Despite these advances, their full potential is often limited by technological capacity. However, with the combined growth of both DNA sequencing and computer processing capabilities, we are now starting to see some remarkable progress in our understanding of microbial ecology, and the crucial roles microorganisms play in both accelerating and mitigating environmental change.
