【 摘 要 】

Metagenomics may be defined as a study of uncultured microorganisms. It includes quicker, cheaper sequencing skill and by using metagenomic approach, we can able to sequence   uncultured microbial samples from their environment directly are expanding and transforming our view of the   microbial world.  Purify meaningful information from the millions of new genomic sequences presents a serious challenge to bioinformaticians.  In  cultured microbes,  the  genomic   data   come  from  a  single  clone, making  sequence assembly  and  annotation tractable.  In metagenomics,    the   data   come   from   heterogeneous microbial communities, sometimes containing more than 10,000 species, with the sequence data being noisy and partial. From sampling, to assembly, to gene calling and function prediction, bioinformatics faces new demands in interpreting voluminous, noisy, and often   partial sequence data. Although   metagenomics  is   a  relative newcomer  to  science,  the  past  few years have  seen  an explosion in computational methods applied  to metagenomic  based  research. This article gives an idea about some bioinformatic techniques for metagenomics
