Metatranscriptomics is the study of the complete set of RNA transcripts produced by the collective genomes (the metagenome) of a microbial community in a specific environment at a given time. This approach allows researchers to investigate the active gene expression in diverse microbial populations, providing insights into microbial community dynamics, functional potential, and responses to environmental changes.
