Most of the soil microorganisms are unculturable,which limits the exploitation and application of microbial resources. Metagenomics has great potential in the research of unculturable microorganisms in soil. Progress on the research of metagenomic DNA purification,metagenomic library construction and screening of soil microorganisms are reviewed briefly.
