Functional attractors in microbial community assembly [PDF]
Cell Systems, 2021 SUMMARY For microbiome biology to become a more predictive science, we must identify which descriptive features of microbial communities are reproducible and predictable, which are not, and why.

Trophic Interactions and the Drivers of Microbial Community Assembly.
Current Biology, 2020 Despite numerous surveys of gene and species content in heterotrophic microbial communities, such as those found in animal guts, oceans, or soils, it is still unclear whether there are generalizable biological or ecological processes that control their ...

Chronic Environmental Perturbation Influences Microbial Community Assembly Patterns
Environmental Science and Technology, 2022 Acute environmental perturbations are reported to induce deterministic microbial community assembly, while it is hypothesized that chronic perturbations promote development of alternative stable states. Such acute or chronic perturbations strongly impact

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Microbial communities in incipient soil systems serve as the only biotic force shaping landscape evolution. However, the underlying ecological forces shaping microbial community structure and function are inadequately understood.

Coupling spatiotemporal community assembly processes to changes in microbial metabolism [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Community assembly processes generate shifts in species abundances that influence ecosystem cycling of carbon and nutrients, yet our understanding of assembly remains largely separate from ecosystem-level functioning.

Cluster dispersal shapes microbial diversity during community assembly.
PLoS Computational BiologyIdentifying the drivers of diversity remains a central challenge in microbial ecology. In microbiota, within-community diversity is often linked to host health, which makes it all the more important to understand. Since many communities assemble de novo,

Microbial community assembly patterns at the species level in different parts of the medium temperature Daqu during fermentation. [PDF]
Curr Res Food SciMedium-temperature Daqu (MT-Daqu) serves as a crucial saccharifying and fermentation agent in the production of strong-flavor Baijiu. Due to the spatial heterogeneity of solid fermentation, significant differences occurred in the fermentation state and ...
