Frequency of disturbance alters diversity, function, and underlying assembly mechanisms of complex bacterial communities

2018-05-04

Abstract excerpt

Disturbance is known to affect ecosystem structure, but predicting its outcomes remains elusive. Similarly, community diversity is believed to relate to ecosystem functions, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we tested the effect of disturbance on the structure, diversity, and ecosystem function of complex microbial communities within an engineered system. We carried out a microcosm experim...
