The diversity of life on Earth is an irreplaceable natural heritage. The diversity of microbial life is enormous, however recent evidence indicates that most (around 99%) of microbial species remain undiscovered. Modern science has produced a new awareness of this extraordinary diversity, as well as the surprising range of habitats where microbes flourish. Their metabolic types are equally broad and include a wide variety of photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic pathways.

地球上生命的多样性是不可替代的自然遗产。微生物生命的多样性是巨大的，但最近的证据表明，大多数（约99%）的微生物物种仍然未被发现。 现代科学对这种非凡的多样性以及微生物繁衍生息的令人惊讶的栖息地产生了新的认识。它们的代谢类型同样广泛，包括各种各样的光合和非光合途径。
