Dispersal is a fundamental community assembly process that maintains soil microbial
biodiversity across spatial and temporal scales, yet the impact of dispersal on ecosystem …

Recent evidence suggests that, similar to larger organisms, dispersal is a key driver of
microbiome assembly; however, our understanding of the rates and taxonomic composition …

Dispersal is simply defined as the movement of species across space and time. Despite this
terse definition, dispersal is an essential process with direct ecological and evolutionary …

The spatial heterogeneity of soil's microhabitats warrants the study of ecological patterns
and community assembly processes in the context of physical disturbance that disrupts the …

Uncovering the plant‐soil feedback mechanisms underlying the assembly of belowground
microbial communities is essential for terrestrial biodiversity conservation. However, little is …

Soils contain a tangle of minerals, water, nutrients, gases, plant roots, decaying organic
matter, and microorganisms which work together to cycle nutrients and support terrestrial …

Soil microbial community assembly is crucial for understanding the mechanisms of microbial
communities that regulate ecosystem-level functioning. The relative contributions of …

Dispersal, the movement of individuals across space, has long been recognized as a
fundamental process influencing the assembly of plants and animals (Ronce, 2007; Vellend …

Soil, the living terrestrial skin of the Earth, plays a central role in supporting life and is home
to an unimaginable diversity of microorganisms. This review explores key drivers for …

Dispersal is central to the evolution and maintenance of microbial diversity. Quantifying
microbial dispersal and its role in shaping communities remains a challenge, however …
