Ecological succession among iron-oxidizing bacteria. [PDF]
Abstract Despite over 125 years of study, the factors that dictate species dominance in neutrophilic iron-oxidizing bacterial (FeOB) communities remain unknown. In a freshwater wetland, we documented a clear ecological succession coupled with niche separation between the helical stalk-forming Gallionellales (for example, Gallionella ...

Host development overwhelms environmental dispersal in governing the ecological succession of zebrafish gut microbiota [PDF]
Clarifying mechanisms underlying the ecological succession of gut microbiota is a central theme of gut ecology. Under experimental manipulations of zebrafish hatching and rearing environments, we test our core hypothesis that the host development will ...

Soil Microbial Networks Shift Across a High-Elevation Successional Gradient [PDF]
While it is well established that microbial composition and diversity shift along environmental gradients, how interactions among microbes change is poorly understood.

Ecological succession of adult necrophilous insects on neonate Sus scrofa domesticus in central North Carolina. [PDF]
The necrophilous insect fauna on carcasses varies seasonally and geographically. The ecological succession of insects arriving to decaying neonate pig carcasses in central North Carolina during late summer was sampled using a novel vented-chamber ...

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.

Shifts and Trade‐Offs of Ecological Strategy Associated With Species Diversity and Functional Traits During Vegetation Succession Progress in Karst Ecosystem [PDF]
The CSR framework reflects the ecological strategies of competition (C), stress tolerance (S), and ruderal (R) that plants employ to adapt to disturbances.
