Stochastic processes shape microeukaryotic community assembly in a subtropical river across wet and dry seasons
Background The deep mechanisms (deterministic and/or stochastic processes) underlying
community assembly are a central challenge in microbial ecology. However, the relative …

Abundant fungi adapt to broader environmental gradients than rare fungi in agricultural fields
Soil communities are intricately linked to ecosystem functioning, and a predictive
understanding of how communities assemble in response to environmental change is of …

Distinct patterns and processes of abundant and rare eukaryotic plankton communities following a reservoir cyanobacterial bloom
Plankton communities normally consist of few abundant and many rare species, yet little is
known about the ecological role of rare planktonic eukaryotes. Here we used a 18S …

Global airborne bacterial community—interactions with Earth's microbiomes and anthropogenic activities
Airborne bacteria are an influential component of the Earth's microbiomes, but their
community structure and biogeographic distribution patterns have yet to be understood. We …
