Common spatial patterns of trees in various tropical forests: Small trees are associated with increased diversity at small spatial scales

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Tropical forests are notable for their high species diversity, even on small spatial scales, and right‐skewed species and size abundance distributions.

Strong Environmental Filtering Based on Hydraulic Traits Occurring in the Lower Water Availability of Temperate Forest Communities

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The trait-based approaches have made progress in understanding the community assembly process. Here, we explore the key traits that may shape community assembly patterns of the same community type but within different water availabilities.

Soil salinity is the main factor influencing the soil bacterial community assembly process under long-term drip irrigation in Xinjiang, China

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Identifying the potential factors associated with the impact of long-term drip irrigation (DI) on soil ecosystems is essential for responding to the environmental changes induced by extensive application of DI technology in arid regions.

Null models for gene enrichment in plasmids [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021
The recent article by Che et al. (1) presents an analysis of a dataset of 14,029 plasmids. I enjoyed the paper but have some concerns about its analysis. While it is clear that more conjugative plasmids carry antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes, it is unclear whether this is simply because conjugative plasmids tend to carry more genes in general ...

Spatial Pattern and Ecological Process Difference Analyses of the Boundary Habitats of a Treeline Patch: A Case Study from the Li Mountain, North China

Land, 2022
Treeline patches are among Earth’s most sensitive and are important model ecosystems for assessing climate change trends. To explore ecological factors that limit the species’ survival in treelines, the treeline patch of Li Mountain National Nature ...

Link Prediction in Directed Networks Utilizing the Role of Reciprocal Links

IEEE Access, 2020
Link prediction in directed networks has always been a hot topic in many fields including network science, information system and data mining. Intuitively, once links are endowed with certain orientations, their reciprocate nature can potentially provide

A simple null model predicts the island rule [PDF]

Ecology Letters, 2021
Abstract The island rule is a putative pattern in island evolution, where small species become larger on islands and large species become smaller. Despite decades of study, a mechanistic explanation for why some taxonomic groups obey the island rule, while others do not, has yet to be identified.
