Research Abstract	This project aims to clarify the relationship between environments and microbes using environmental genomic data from metagenomics analyses. I compared various environmental metagenomics data and found that the metabolic categories of them have no large differences but sub-networks of metabolism were linked each other in environmental microbes. Therefore, it was implied that microbes have interactions through compounds in their environments.
