Introduction to the Archaea Life's extremists. . . The Domain Archaea wasn't recognized as a major domain of life until quite recently. Until the 20th century, most biologists considered all living things to be classifiable as either a plant or an animal. But in the 1950s and 1960s, most biologists came to the realization that this system failed to accomodate the fungi, protists, and bacteria.

An overview of the international efforts to sequence microbial genomes, potentially unlocking beneficial applications in bioremediation, climate change, biotechnology, energy production, and other vital areas.

This four-part series brings to light the dazzlingly beautiful microbes that support Earth s natural environment. The highly visual series examines how microbes promote health and cause illness in humans, clean up toxic residues, provide clues to unraveling the mysteries of the genetic code and may be the secret weapon against future famine and disease.
