Abstract

Microorganisms hold key roles in food webs and biogeochemical cycles. The identification of these organisms, their diversity and distribution patterns are, therefore, central topics in microbial ecology. The introduction of sequencing strategies has revolutionized the field of microbial ecology and paved the road for in-depth molecular diversity studies. Here we describe the application of DNA-sequencing strategies to study the diversity, evolution and ecological function of microorganisms in marine environments.
