[Introduction and progress of molecular microbial ecology].
Molecular microbial ecology is an interdisciplinary field of molecular biological techniques and microbial ecology, which deals with microbial population, diversity, function, and relationships between microorganisms and biotic and abotic environments in microbial ecosystem. All the progress in molecular microbial ecology, especially in microbial diversity, phylogeny and communities of some microoganisms, indicate the renovation in traditional microbial ecology by the introduction of molecular techniques and strategies. This article reviewed the ideation, development, key domains, main methods and the future hot fields in molecular microbial ecology.
