Immigration, local dispersal limitation, and the repeatability of community composition under neutral and niche dynamics. [PDF]
Repeatability of community composition has been a critical aspect for community structure, which is closely associated with community stability, predictability, conservation biology and ecological restoration.

Image_1_Elevational Gradients Impose Dispersal Limitation on Streptomyces.JPEG
Dispersal governs microbial biogeography, but the rates and mechanisms of dispersal remain poorly characterized for most microbial taxa. Dispersal limitation is driven by limits on dissemination and establishment, respectively. Elevation gradients create

β-Diversity of functional groups of woody plants in a tropical dry forest in Yucatan. [PDF]
Two main theories have attempted to explain variation in plant species composition (β-diversity). Niche theory proposes that most of the variation is related to environment (environmental filtering), whereas neutral theory posits that dispersal ...

Detangling the Effects of Environmental Filtering and Dispersal Limitation on Aggregated Distributions of Tree and Shrub Species: Life Stage Matters. [PDF]
The pervasive pattern of aggregated tree distributions in natural communities is commonly explained by the joint effect of two clustering processes: environmental filtering and dispersal limitation, yet little consensus remains on the relative importance

Bacterial communities play pivotal roles in nutrient cycling in mangrove forests. The assembly of mangrove microbial communities has been found to be influenced by complex factors, such as geographic distance, physicochemical conditions, and plant ...
