Algae drive convergent bacterial community assembly at low dilution frequency
iScience, 2023 Summary: Microbial community assembly is a complex dynamical process that determines community structure and function. The interdependence of inter-species interactions and nutrient availability presents a challenge for understanding community assembly ...

Determinism of microbial community assembly by drastic environmental change.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Microbial community assembly is shaped by deterministic and stochastic processes, but the relationship between these processes and the environment is not understood.

Emergent simplicity in microbial community assembly [PDF]
Science, 2017 Interchanging species of similar function Under natural conditions, bacteria form mixed, interacting communities. Understanding how such communities assemble and stabilize is important in a range of contexts, from biotechnological applications to what happens in our guts. Goldford et al.

Movement‐mediated community assembly and coexistence [PDF]
Biological Reviews, 2019 ABSTRACT Organismal movement is ubiquitous and facilitates important ecological mechanisms that drive community and metacommunity composition and hence biodiversity. In most existing ecological theories and models in biodiversity research, movement is represented simplistically, ignoring the behavioural basis of movement and ...

Diversity, 2020 Trait-based approaches present a promising avenue for improving our understanding of species coexistence and community assembly, while intraspecific trait variation (ITV) across different spatial scales is important in trait-based community assembly ...

Deterministic processes dominate soil microbial community assembly in subalpine coniferous forests on the Loess Plateau [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Microbial community assembly is influenced by a continuum (actually the trade-off) between deterministic and stochastic processes. An understanding of this ecological continuum is of great significance for drawing inferences about the effects of ...

Understanding community assembly rules in managed floodplain food webs
Ecosphere, 2021 Community assembly has been an important topic in ecological research and theory for over a century. Recently, restoration ecologists have emphasized the use of community assembly rules, such as environmental filtering, to better inform management ...

A Roadmap for Sustainable Disease, Pest, and Weed Management
Biology and Life Sciences Forum, 2023 Effective disease, pest, and weed control are essential for achieving sustainable agricultural practices. The ever-growing global population, coupled with the increasing demand for food, poses a significant challenge to agriculture systems globally.

Continuous assembly required: Perpetual species turnover in two‐trophic‐level ecosystems
Ecosphere, 2023 Community assembly is often treated as deterministic, converging on one or at most a few possible stable endpoints. However, in nature, we typically observe continuous change in community composition, which is often ascribed to environmental change.
