Ecological succession in a changing world [PDF]
Ecological succession – how biological communities re‐assemble and change over time following natural or anthropogenic disturbance – has been studied since the birth of ecology, and the resulting theoretical framework underpins many aspects of the ...

Fumonisin-Exposure Impairs Age-Related Ecological Succession of Bacterial Species in Weaned Pig Gut Microbiota. [PDF]
Pigs are highly affected by dietary mycotoxin contamination and particularly by fumonisin. The effects of fumonisin on pig intestinal health are well documented, but little is known regarding its impact on gut microbiota.

The last 50 years of climate-induced melting of the Maliy Aktru glacier (Altai Mountains, Russia) revealed in a primary ecological succession. [PDF]
In this article, we report and discuss the results obtained from a survey of plants, microorganisms (bacteria and fungi), and soil elements along a chronosequence in the first 600 m of the Maliy Aktru glacier's forefront (Altai Mountains, Russia).

Ecological Succession Pattern of Fungal Community in Soil along a Retreating Glacier. [PDF]
Accelerated by global climate changing, retreating glaciers leave behind soil chronosequences of primary succession. Current knowledge of primary succession is mainly from studies of vegetation dynamics, whereas information about belowground microbes ...

Disentangling the Mutual Feedback Relationship between Extreme Drought and Flood Events and Ecological Succession of Vegetation [PDF]
In the context of climate change, the extreme precipitation events over most of the mid-latitude land masses and over wet tropical regions will very likely become more intense and more frequent, which may cause increases in the intensity and frequency of

High‐Altitude Open‐Pit Coal Mining has Changed the Sulfur Cycle and Ecological Network of Plant Rhizosphere Microorganisms [PDF]
Ecological restoration of mining sites has a considerable effect on microbial community dynamics; however, its impact on sulfur cycling is unclear. This study explored the changes in functional genes related to sulfur cycling and microbial diversity ...

Ecological succession of a Jurassic shallow-water ichthyosaur fall. [PDF]
After the discovery of whale fall communities in modern oceans, it has been hypothesized that during the Mesozoic the carcasses of marine reptiles created similar habitats supporting long-lived and specialized animal communities.
