Enhancing Microbial Pollutant Degradation by Integrating Eco-Evolutionary Principles with Environmental Biotechnology

Trends in Microbiology, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 29(10), P. 908 - 918

We advocate to shift research efforts in environmental biotechnology from searching for desired traits of monocultures that microbial communities. As these will be hard identify with classical genome mining approaches, we recommend using artificial community selection as a tool and select novel and/or enhanced functions.Bioremediation biodegradation artificially selected communities harbors great potential become fast, cost-effective, eco-friendly, socially acceptable way remove pollutants without prior knowledge the involved species degradation pathways needed.The use highly integrated multispecies instead processes result more stable productive cultures.The novelty our proposed approach lies combination eco-evolutionary principles applied biotechnology.
