Published by the Microbiology Society, Microbial Genomics is a Gold Open Access, peer-reviewed journal publishing cutting edge, pioneering research into genomic approaches to microbiology, fully supported by Open Data and innovative collaborative services. We cover topics including, but not limited to:
•Functional Genomics and Microbe–Niche Interactions.

•Pathogens and Epidemiology.

•Metagenomics and Microbiomes.

•Evolution and Responses to Interventions.

•Genomic Methodologies.


We welcome articles showing novel insights, exciting new applications, or innovative approaches to analysis using genomic data, as well as articles developing our understanding of microbial genomics, from large, long-term studies on microbial evolution and epidemiology to studies that have immediate clinical or environmental relevance. We welcome a range of article types including Research Articles, Reviews and Technical Resources; please see the guidance on article types for more information.
