An engineered microbe performing a given functionality (such as carbon sequestration) can be coupled to the degradation of a given resource, such as plastic garbage or other long-living byproducts of human activities.
Other studies have found microbes to have incredible adaptive abilities, lessening the likelihood that human causes could wipe out all the microbes that perform a specific function in an ecosystem (Allison & Martiny, 2008).
Still other soil microbes perform the various oxidations and reductions by which minerals such as iron, manganese, and sulphur are transformed and made available to plants.
