Thirty-one years of rice-rice-green manure rotations shape the rhizosphere microbial community and enrich beneficial bacteria (2017, background): “%) that could be contributed by unmeasured soil and plant variables or stochastic process (Zhou et al., 2014).”
Stochastic Community Assembly: Does It Matter in Microbial Ecology? (2017, background): “Coupling theoretical analyses with ecosystem management efforts to obtain well-replicated time series data could be a viable way to test the concepts and theory of community assembly and succession in field settings (35, 136).”
Disentangling mechanisms that mediate the balance between stochastic and deterministic processes in microbial succession (2015, background): “…for Evolutionary Life Sciences, University of Groningen, 9747 AG Groningen, The Netherlands; and bBiological Sciences Division, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland, WA 99352 Edited by Steven E. Lindow, University of California, Berkeley, CA, and approved February 3, 2015…”
A general framework for quantitatively assessing ecological stochasticity (2019, methodology): “Thus, the difference between the observed and average null expectation can be used to assess the strength of determinism acting against otherwise stochastic forces with respect to the ith and jth communities (18), which is referred to as selection strength between the ith and jth communities ðSSij Þ”
