The holobiome is an interconnected network of microbial ecosystems spanning soil, plants, animals, humans, and the environment. Microbial interactions drive nutrient cycling, pathogen suppression, climate regulation. Soil microbiomes facilitate carbon sequestration enhance soil fertility, while marine contribute to capture stability. However, industrial agriculture, extensive herbicide use, antibiotic overuse, change threaten diversity, leading ecosystem health disruptions. Probiotic interventions help restore balance. In human health, probiotics support gut microbiota reduce inflammation, regulate metabolism. improve degrade contaminants, increasing crop yields health. Case studies show that inoculants effectively remediate degraded soils uptake. Artificial intelligence transforming microbiome research by enabling predictive modeling, precision probiotic design, consortia optimization. Interdisciplinary collaboration supportive policies are essential for restoring equilibria, ensuring resilience, promoting long-term sustainability. integration artificial intelligence, clinical research, sustainable practices crucial advancing science. framework underscores need interdisciplinary address global challenges, bridging environmental sustainability, public a resilient future.
