Nutrient supply controls the linkage between species abundance and ecological interactions in marine bacterial communities
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Nature Communications"
DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-27857-6
Abstract: Nutrient scarcity is pervasive for natural microbial communities, affecting species reproduction and co-existence. However, it remains unclear whether there are general rules of how microbial species abundances are shaped by biotic and abiotic factors. Here… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-61690-z
Abstract: Spontaneous wine fermentation is characterized by yeast population evolution, modulated by complex physical and metabolic interactions amongst various species. The contribution of any given species to the final wine character and aroma will depend on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rstb.2021.0389
Abstract: The pervasive loss of biodiversity in the Anthropocene necessitates rapid assessments of ecosystems to understand how they will respond to anthropogenic environmental change. Many studies have sought to describe the adaptive capacity (AC) of individual… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ele.13525
Abstract: There is a rich amount of information in co-occurrence (presence-absence) data that could be used to understand community assembly. This proposition first envisioned by Forbes (1907) and then Diamond (1975) prompted the development of numerous… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/eva.13457
Abstract: While ecological interactions have been identified as determinant for biological control efficiency, the role of evolution remains largely underestimated in biological control programs. With the restrictions on the use of both pesticides and exotic biological… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/msphere.00436-22
Abstract: Higher-order interactions are one of the major blind spots in our understanding of microbial ecosystems. These systems remain largely unpredictable and are characterized by nonlinear dynamics, in particular when the system is comprised of more… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s40168-019-0752-0
Abstract: The persistent inertia in the ability to culture environmentally abundant microbes from aquatic ecosystems represents an obstacle in disentangling the complex web of ecological interactions spun by a diverse assortment of participants (pro- and eukaryotes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pbio.3001847
Abstract: Genes encoding resistance to stressors, such as antibiotics or environmental pollutants, are widespread across microbiomes, often encoded on mobile genetic elements. Yet, despite their prevalence, the impact of resistance genes and their mobility upon the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0011316
Abstract: Background The transmission dynamics of leishmaniasis are complex. There is also a lack of information about the ecological relationships between the vector/host/parasite at a more local and specific level. The Andean region concentrates more than… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.780346
Abstract: Lack of robustness is a major barrier to foster a sustainable cyanobacterial biotechnology. Use of cyanobacterial consortium increases biodiversity, which provides functional redundancy and prevents invading species from disrupting the production ecosystem. Here we characterized… read more here.
