Emerging Patterns of Microbial Functional Traits.

Trends in microbiology - 1 Oct 2021

Yang Yunfeng

Abstract excerpt

Functional traits are measurable characteristics that affect an organism's fitness under certain environmental conditions. The use of functional traits in microbial ecology holds great promise for improving our ability to develop biogeochemical models and predict ecosystem responses to global changes. Notably, functional traits could be decoupled from taxonomic relatedness, owing to horizontal gene transfer among...
