Microorganisms represent the largest gene resources and are the major drivers of biosphere processes in lake ecosystem.However,due to the fact that the vast majority of microbes in environmental communities cannot be cultured by conventional enrichment method until now,little is known about the structure and function of the water body microbial community,which forms a barrier in using bioremediation approaches in lakes.The recently emerged approach metagenomics is a promising technology independent of culture and offers a new way to conquer this problem.On one hand,metagenomics could be used as a tool to exploit the biodiversity,recover the metabolic pathway of lake microbial communities,which provide basic knowledge for polluted water control.On the other hand,enzyme,especially the novel enzyme provided great potential in many industries.In the latest years,metagenomics achieved much with many barriers existing.In the present review,the concept,methodology,application and challenges of metagenomics in lake ecosystem were described.
