Global assembly of microbial communities

open access: yesmSystems, 2023
Different habitats harbor different microbial communities with elusive assembly mechanisms. This study comprehensively investigated the global assembly mechanisms of microbial communities and effects of community-internal influencing factors using the ...

Coupling Bacterial Community Assembly to Microbial Metabolism across Soil Profiles

open access: yesmSystems, 2020
Soil microbial community assembly is crucial for understanding the mechanisms of microbial communities that regulate ecosystem-level functioning. The relative contributions of stochastic and deterministic processes to microbial community assembly remain ...

A quantitative framework reveals ecological drivers of grassland microbial community assembly in response to warming

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Unraveling the drivers controlling community assembly is a central issue in ecology. Although it is generally accepted that selection, dispersal, diversification and drift are major community assembly processes, defining their relative importance is very

Vitamin auxotrophies shape microbial community assembly on model marine particles. [PDF]

open access: yesISME J
Microbial community assembly is governed by the flow of carbon sources and other primary metabolites between species. However, central metabolism represents only a small fraction of the biosynthetic repertoire of microbes: metabolites such as ...

Resource competition can explain simplicity in microbial community assembly

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2023
Predicting the composition and diversity of communities is a central goal in ecology. While community assembly is considered hard to predict, laboratory microcosms often follow a simple assembly rule based on the outcome of pairwise competitions.

Effects of Human Trampling on Soil Microbial Community Assembly in Yangzhou Urban Forest Park [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Human trampling in urban forest parks has received increasing attention, yet its effects on microbial community assembly remain elusive. This study investigated how trampling influences soil physicochemical properties and microbial communities in ...

Nitrogen deposition does not change stochastic processes of soil microbial community assembly under climate warming in primary forest

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Soil microbial communities are essential for ensuring forest health, however, the influences of global change on soil microbial communities and their ecosystem functions remain unclear. Here, we explored the influences of experimental warming (3 °C above
