The profound influence of microorganisms on human life and global biogeochemical cycles
underlines the value of studying the biogeography of microorganisms, exploring microbial …

Recent advances in studying the dynamics of marine microbial communities have shown
that the composition of these communities follows predictable patterns and involves complex …

Background Plant health and growth are negatively affected by pathogen invasion; however,
plants can dynamically modulate their rhizosphere microbiome and adapt to such biotic …

Revealing the biogeographies and ecologies of rare and abundant microorganisms is
crucial to understand ecosystem diversity and function. In this study, we investigated the …

Marine microbes have tremendous diversity, but a fundamental question remains
unanswered: why are there so many microbial species in the sea? The idea of functional …

Elucidating the mechanisms underpinning the responses of abundant and rare microbial
taxa to environmental disturbances is essential for understanding the biodiversity-stability …

Bacterioplankton (bacteria and archaea) are indispensable regulators of global element
cycles owing to their unique ability to decompose and remineralize dissolved organic matter …

Methane seeps are widespread seafloor ecosystems shaped by the emission of gas from
seabed reservoirs. The microorganisms inhabiting methane seeps transform the chemical …

In this work, they compared patterns of abundant and rare picoeukaryotic sub‐communities
in the epipelagic waters (surface and 40–75 m depth subsurface layers) of the East and …

A microbe's growth rate helps to set its ecological success and its contribution to food web
dynamics and biogeochemical processes. Growth rates at the community level are …
