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 ...

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 ...

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.

Rare Species-Driven Diversity–Ecosystem Multifunctionality Relationships are Promoted by Stochastic Community Assembly

mBio, 2022
The relative functional importance of rare and abundant species in driving relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem functions remains unknown. Here, we highlighted the importance of rare species for ecosystem multifunctionality.

Intraspecific Trait Variation Dilutes Deterministic Processes in Community Assembly of Arid Shrubs across Multiple Scales

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 ...

Unraveling negative biotic interactions determining soil microbial community assembly and functioning

The ISME Journal, 2021
Microbial communities play important roles in all ecosystems and yet a comprehensive understanding of the ecological processes governing the assembly of these communities is missing.

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 ...

Changes in phosphorus mobilization and community assembly of bacterial and fungal communities in rice rhizosphere under phosphate deficiency

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Rhizosphere microorganisms are closely associated with phosphorus (P) uptake in plants and are considered potential agents to mitigate P shortage. However, the mechanisms of rhizospheric microbial community assembly under P deficiency have yet to be ...
