Book excerpt: Microorganisms provide a number of ecosystem services to humans, enabling natural systems to benefit from a genetic reservoir for their fundamental functioning and sustainability. They also play an important role in the functioning of global ecosystems. The development of microbial omics has enabled the deciphering of precise microbial functions in various ecosystems, leading to the identification and characterization of numerous provisioning services, biological processes, and supporting services. Additionally, microbial omics research has resulted in the development of applied biotechnologies in areas such as food security, agriculture, aquaculture, human health, animal health, and environmental bioremediation processes.
