[PDF][PDF] Diversity and ecology of protists revealed by metabarcoding
Protists are the dominant eukaryotes in the biosphere where they play key functional roles.
While protists have been studied for over a century, it is the high-throughput sequencing 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 …

Soil pH and temperature regulate assembly processes of abundant and rare bacterial communities in agricultural ecosystems
The factors determining stochastic and deterministic processes that drive microbial
community structure, specifically the balance of abundant and rare bacterial taxa, remain …

Eukaryotic plankton diversity in the sunlit ocean
Marine plankton support global biological and geochemical processes. Surveys of their
biodiversity have hitherto been geographically restricted and have not accounted for the full …
