Shotgun Metagenomics Sequencing

Metagenome refers to the sum of all microbial genetic materials in specified environment. Metagenome sequencing can determine all microorganisms in specified environment, especially conduct sequence determine and excavate functional gene for the genome which is difficult to culture the microorganism and research new gene with specified function.
