摘要

On May 13,2016,the American government launched a 121-million USD investment for the National Microbiome Initiative (NMI),which aims to provide an in-depth understanding of microbiomes in order to develop new applications in the areas of human health,food security,and environmental restoration [1].NMI also calls for projects to develop platform technologies,reference libraries,and databases for microbiome research in all habitats,including in the human gut.
