Foreword
Despite the simplicity of the way of life, the microorganisms present an abundant genetic diversity in the nature coming from their chromosomal DNAs as well as plasmid DNAs, obtained through the evolution over time so that they could adapt to the conditions of all marine and terrestrial ecosystems. There were billions of years of ecological adaptation to fulfill their function on planet Earth, which is to provide a balance of nutrients essential for the maintenance of global ecosystems. This high biological diversity of the world’s microbiota has provided human beings with practical, economical, and/or ecological opportunities for most of the known microorganisms by exploiting their metabolic capacities at the biochemical and molecular levels and defining the multiple functions associated with the simplest ce
