A framework for integrating genomics, microbial traits, and ecosystem biogeochemistry

Microbes are crucial for Earth's biogeochemical cycles, and this study by the EMERGE Biology Integration Institute demonstrates the significant impact of genome-inferred microbial traits on ecosystem functioning. Their innovative G2E framework, applied to Arctic wetlands, showcases how detailed genomic data can enhance the accuracy of ecosystem models.
