Understanding the mechanisms controlling community diversity, functions, succession, and
biogeography is a central, but poorly understood, topic in ecology, particularly in microbial …

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 …

While it is now widely accepted that microorganisms provide essential functions in
restoration ecology, the nature of relationships between microbial community assembly and …

Revealing the linkages between community assembly and species coexistence, which is
crucial for the understanding of ecosystem diversity and functioning, is a fundamental but …

A growing body of evidence suggests that microbial α-diversity (local species richness) may
have positive effects on ecosystem function. However, less attention has been paid to β …

Microbial biodiversity is crucial for maintaining ecosystem functions. As climate change
progresses at both global and regional scales, there is a need to understand microbial …

Belowground microbial communities strongly influence ecosystem function such that
predicting function may rely on understanding ecological processes that assemble …

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

The hyporheic corridor (HC) encompasses the river–groundwater continuum, where the
mixing of groundwater (GW) with river water (RW) in the HC can stimulate biogeochemical …

Subsurface groundwater‐surface water mixing zones (hyporheic zones) have enhanced
biogeochemical activity, but assembly processes governing subsurface microbiomes remain …
