Bacterial diversity stabilizes community productivity. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Stability is a crucial ecosystem feature gaining particular importance in face of increasing anthropogenic stressors. Biodiversity is considered to be a driving biotic force maintaining stability, and in this study we investigate how ...

The Bacterial Composition and Diversity in a Eucalyptus pellita Plantation in South Sumatra, Indonesia

Diversity, 2022
Plantation forests have been strongly established in Indonesia, with Acacias and Eucalyptus as the most common species. Using a single species in a large plantation may affect its sustainability because of the threat from biotic and abiotic factors.

Bacterial Keystone Taxa Regulate Carbon Metabolism in the Earthworm Gut

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
As important ecosystem engineers in soils, earthworms strongly influence carbon cycling through their burrowing and feeding activities. Earthworms do not perform these roles in isolation, because their intestines create a special habitat favorable for ...

Divergence in Gut Bacterial Community Among Life Stages of the Rainbow Stag Beetle Phalacrognathus muelleri (Coleptera: Lucanidae)

Insects, 2020
Although stag beetles are popular saprophytic insects, there are few studies about their gut bacterial community. This study focused on the gut bacterial community structure of the rainbow stag beetle (i.e., Phalacrognathus muelleri) in its larvae (three

Homogeneous selection is not always important in bacterial community in the eutrophic enclosed bay

Ecological Processes, 2022
Background Previous studies have found that coastal eutrophication increases the influence of homogeneous selection on bacterial community assembly. However, whether seasonal changes affect the dominance of homogenous selection in bacterial community ...
