• Beta diversity of diatom species and ecological guilds: Response to environmental and spatial mechanisms along the stream watercourse (2018, background): “Both mechanisms affect b-diversity but generally in opposite ways: dispersal limitation increases b-diversity (Nekola & White, 1999; Qian, 2009; Soininen, 2007), whereas mass effects homogenise communities and decrease b-diversity (Mouquet & Loreau, 2003; Shmida & Wilson, 1985).”
• Current measures for distance decay in similarity of species composition are influenced by study extent and grain size (2012, background): “Other authors simply did not specify how they coped with the problem, presumably as they did not face the problem (Qian, 2008, 2009; Martiny et al., 2011).”
• High mammal species turnover in forest patches immersed in biofuel plantations (2017, background): “This species turnoverwas clearly influenced by overall forest cover, which can be associated with species-specific dispersal capacity (Qian, 2009), particularly of habitat generalists.”
• A diversity of beta diversities: straightening up a concept gone awry. Part 2. Quantifying beta diversity and related phenomena (2010, methodology): “…y axis (Whittaker 1960, Pielou 1975, Vazquez and Givnish 1998, Leach and Givnish 1999, Qian et al. 2005, 2009, Qian and Ricklefs 2007, Qian 2008, Smith 2008), others a linear one (Cody 1993, Condit et al. 2002, Davidar et al. 2007, Novotny et al. 2007, Muneepeerakul et al. 2008, Qian 2009).”
• Climatic history and dispersal ability explain the relative importance of turnover and nestedness components of beta diversity (2012, background): “Its effects have been shown for alpha diversity (Hillebrand, 2004) and also for beta diversity (Qian, 2009a,b; JiménezValverde et al., 2010).”
• Geographic patterns and environmental correlates of taxonomic and phylogenetic beta diversity for large‐scale angiosperm assemblages in China (2020, unknown): “2018) and/or dispersal limitation processes (Qian 2009).”
• PAPER Community assembly processes shape an altitudinal gradient of forest biodiversity (2013, background): “A number of explanations have been proposed for the geographical changes observed in b-diversity, including explanations based on dispersal limitation (Qian & Ricklefs, 2007; Qian, 2009), habitat specialization (Jankowski et al.”
• Drivers of β‐diversity along latitudinal gradients revisited (2013, background): “Several studies have shown that b-diversity is greater at lower latitudes (e.g. Qian & Ricklefs, 2007, 2012; Buckley & Jetz, 2008; Qian, 2009; Qian et al., 2009; Lenoir et al., 2010; Chen et al., 2011) and in areas with higher environmental energy (e.g. Qian & Xiao, 2012).”
• Environmental and spatial controls of biotic assemblages in a discrete semi‐terrestrial habitat: comparison of organisms with different dispersal abilities sampled in the same plots (2011, background): “…theoretical concepts in current ecology (dispersal versus niche models; e.g. Tuomisto et al., 2003; McGill et al., 2006; Vergnon et al., 2009), recent studies have approached it from a variety of perspectives (e.g. Girdler & Barrie, 2008; Qian, 2009; Verleyen et al., 2009; Heino et al., 2010).”
• The spatial scaling of beta diversity (2013, background): “Taxa with low average rates of dispersal might be expected to show lower average geographic range sizes and higher rates of local endemism, resulting in higher rates of species turnover at local to regional scales (Qian, 2009; Baselga et al., 2012).”
• A meta‐analysis of nestedness and turnover components of beta diversity across organisms and ecosystems (2018, background): “…diversity and turnover with latitude has been suggested by earlier meta-analyses of beta diversity (Soininen, Lennon et al., 2007; Soininen, McDonald et al., 2007) and species–area relationships (Drakare et al., 2006), as well as large-scale terrestrial case studies (Qian, 2009; Qian et al., 2009).”
• Global diversity and geography of soil fungi (2014, background): “and there are profound differences in plant species turnover depending on propagule size (42).”
