Abstract

Biological scientists have established ‘Biodiversity Informatics’ to map the global diversity of biological organisms by using cutting-edge bioinformatics tools. This review depicts an overview of microbial diversity's status worldwide and discusses microbial biodiversity in the marine and terrestrial ecosystems. The study shows how the ‘Biodiversity Informatics’ could help scientists to map the variety of microbial species recorded in terrestrial and marine habitats. The status of microbial biodiversity globally is also discussed. Besides, it also illustrates how biologists could utilize databases to explore not only microbial biodiversity but also various species of fauna and flora. We have represented microbial biodiversity informatics and its growth, tools and technologies, data management, digital taxonomy for biodiversity informatics to categorize microbial species. Moreover, molecular biodiversity informatics and current progress of biodiversity informatics have also been discussed. Finally, we have also depicted the policy and managerial implications and research gaps in this direction. Our article will lead to the novel path, which will show the interdisciplinary approaches of biodiversity informatics with the support of metagenomics and genomics.
