Experimentally induced habitat filtering in marine bacterial communities [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2013
We tested the habitat filtering hypothesis by measuring the phylogenetic structure in marine bacterial communities before and after experimentally induced stress.

Treecreeper: Software for testing for habitat filtering in local communities

open access: yesAnnali di Botanica, 2013
In this paper we introduce a program for testing for habitat filtering in local communities compared to a regional species pool. Based on phylogenetic or functional species data, the program first calculates the mean species dissimilarity in the local ...

Evolutionary factors and habitat filtering affect the pattern of Gerbillinae diversity [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Zoology
Abstract How ecological and evolutionary factors affect small mammal diversity in arid regions remains largely unknown. Here, we combined the largest phylogeny and occurrence dataset of Gerbillinae desert rodents to explore the underlying factors shaping present-day distribution patterns.

Habitat filtering shapes the differential structure of microbial communities in the Xilingol grassland [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractThe spatial variability of microorganisms in grasslands can provide important insights regarding the biogeographic patterns of microbial communities. However, information regarding the degree of overlap and partitions of microbial communities across different habitats in grasslands is limited.

Habitat filtering differentially modulates phylogenetic and functional diversity relationships between predatory arthropods [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Mechanisms underlying biological diversities at different scales have received significant attention over the last decades. The hypothesis of whether local abiotic factors, driving functional and phylogenetic diversities, can differ among taxa of arthropods remains under-investigated.

The Cacti Microbiome: Interplay between Habitat-Filtering and Host-Specificity [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Cactaceae represents one of the most species-rich families of succulent plants native to arid and semi-arid ecosystems, yet the associations Cacti establish with microorganisms and the rules governing microbial community assembly remain poorly understood. We analyzed the composition, diversity, and factors influencing above- and below-ground bacterial,

Traits, habitats, and clades: Identifying traits of potential importance to environmental filtering [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Naturalist, 2009
Environmental filtering is a fundamental process in the ecological assembly of communities. Recently developed phylogenetic tools identify patterns associated with environmental filtering across whole communities.

Assembly mechanism of primary forest dominated by habitat filtering in karst degradation region [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Introduction The revelation of the assembly mechanism of plant communities in karst region has crucial implications for the restoration of degraded vegetation. Niche theory and neutral theory are the two main theories to elucidate community assembly of karst plant community. However, the relative significance of

Shaping Fungal Communities in Cenchrus setaceus: Host Condition and Habitat Filtering [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobial Ecology
Abstract We investigated the leaf-associated fungal communities of Cenchrus setaceus across a host condition gradient (high- vs. low-condition plants) and environmental zones (coast vs. hill; trade-wind exposure) on Tenerife (TF) and La Palma (LP).

Divergent Secondary Metabolites and Habitat Filtering Both Contribute to Tree Species Coexistence in the Peruvian Amazon [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Little is known about the mechanisms promoting or limiting the coexistence of functionally divergent species in hyperdiverse tropical tree genera. Density-dependent enemy attacks have been proposed to be a major driver for the local coexistence of chemically divergent congeneric species.
