Why is it important?

This review covers systematic understanding of cells and their interactions, which in turn offer insights into optimal design of synthetic microbial consortia and a comprehensive array of synthetic microbial consortia constructed in the last decade. For applications, it includes using synthetic microbial consortia for production of chemicals, bioenergy and medicine, and human health, and environments.
