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 …

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 …
