Community next steps for making globally unique identifiers work for biocollections data [PDF]

, 2015
Biodiversity data is being digitized and made available online at a rapidly increasing rate but current practices typically do not preserve linkages between these data, which impedes interoperation, provenance tracking, and assembly of larger datasets ...

A phylogenetic and trait‐based analysis of community assembly in a subtropical forest in central China

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Despite several decades of study in community ecology, the relative importance of the ecological processes that determine species co‐occurrence across spatial scales remains uncertain.

First report of the ectomycorrhizal fungal community associated with two herbaceous plants in Inner Mongolia, China [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi play a vital role in ensuring plant health, plant diversity, and ecosystem function. However, the study on fungal diversity and community assembly of EM fungi associated with herbaceous plants remains poorly understood.

Impacts of chemical gradients on microbial community structure [PDF]

, 2017
Succession of redox processes is sometimes assumed to define a basic microbial community structure for ecosystems with oxygen gradients. In this paradigm, aerobic respiration, denitrification, fermentation and sulfate reduction proceed in a ...

Fungal community assembly in drought-stressed sorghum shows stochasticity, selection, and universal ecological dynamics. [PDF]

, 2020
Community assembly of crop-associated fungi is thought to be strongly influenced by deterministic selection exerted by the plant host, rather than stochastic processes.

Elevation, moisture and shade drive the functional and phylogenetic meadow communities’ assembly in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau [PDF]

, 2015
Despite a long history of alpine meadows studies, uncertainty remains about the importance of environmental factors in structuring their assembly. We examined the functional and phylogenetic structure of 170 alpine Tibetan meadow communities in relation ...

Ecological Processes Shaping Bulk Soil and Rhizosphere Microbiome Assembly in a Long-Term Amazon Forest-to-Agriculture Conversion. [PDF]

, 2020
Forest-to-agriculture conversion has been identified as a major threat to soil biodiversity and soil processes resilience, although the consequences of long-term land use change to microbial community assembly and ecological processes have been often ...

Applying trait-based models to achieve functional targets for theory-driven ecological restoration [PDF]

, 2014
Manipulating community assemblages to achieve functional targets is a key component of restoring degraded ecosystems. The response-and-effect trait framework provides a conceptual foundation for translating restoration goals into functional trait targets,

Microbial community assembly is taxon- and habitat-dependent in an arid inland river basin, Northwest China

Global Ecology and Conservation
Oasis habitats play a critical role in arid areas, yet little is known regarding microbial community assembly processes and their divergence between oasis and desert habitats in arid inland river basins.
