Abstract

Recent advances in robotics and computer science now make possible the acquisition and processing of immense amounts of genetic data. Because of their small size and relative simplicity, microbial genomes were the proving grounds for technologies that accelerated the Human Genome Project [1–4]. The present state of these technologies is such that it is feasible to completely sequence a microbial genome in days rather than years. As of the time this volume went to press, more than 60 microbial genomes had been sequenced and provisionally annotated (http://www.tigr.org/tigr-scripts/CMR2/CMRHome-Page.spl).
