• Dispersal and diversity in experimental metacommunities: linking theory and practice (2016, background): “Although the mechanisms through which priority effects alter local diversity have been well-described, their impact on metacommunity diversity remains a subject of active debate (Fukami 2015).”
• Priority effects and ecological restoration (2020, methodology): “Using a niche-based framework, Fukami (2015) proposed grouping priority effects mechanisms into two broad processes: niche preemption and niche modification.”
• Core microbiomes for sustainable agroecosystems (2018, background): “While a number of studies have demonstrated priority effects in plant microbiome assembly 46,48,49 , finding potential core microorganisms with preferable priority effects is a challenge.”
• Temperatures beyond the community optimum promote the dominance of heat-adapted, fast growing and stress resistant bacteria in alpine soils (2020, background): “Following disturbances involving partial eradication of local populations, stochastic recolonization plays an important role in community assembly (Fukami, 2015).”
• Eco‐evolutionary dynamics in fragmented landscapes (2017, neutral): “Priority effects occur when the first colonist or genotype influences the structure of community or population (Fukami 2015, De Meester et al. 2016).”
• Regeneration: an overlooked aspect of trait‐based plant community assembly models (2016, background): “At the community level, species differences in the success or timing of new recruitment into open gaps can set community trajectories following major disturbances and direct species turnover throughout succession, driving ecosystem functions and services (e.g., Hausmann & Hawkes 2010; Aicher et al. ”
• Using priority effects to manipulate competitive relationships in restoration (2017, background): “The likelihood and strength of priority effects depends in part upon whether conditions—both abiotic and biotic—allow for rapid growth and niche preemption by early-arriving species (Fukami 2015).”
• Dispersal-Based Microbial Community Assembly Decreases Biogeochemical Function (2017, background): “The cumulative impacts of ecological processes through time and how they relate to ecosystem-level processes is an emerging research frontier in ecosystem science [2,44,52,68,69].”
• Stochastic Community Assembly: Does It Matter in Microbial Ecology? (2017, background): “tional guilds, whereas niche modification impacts species identity primarily across functional guilds (137).”
• Analysing eco‐evolutionary dynamics—The challenging complexity of the real world (2019, background): “…complexity is that the results are often contingent on starting conditions and that apparent minor differences can lead to strongly deviating patterns and trajectories (Fukami, 2015; Losos, Jackman, Larson, Queiroz, & Rodriguez-Schettino, 1998; Scheffer, Carpenter, Foley, Folke, & Walker, 2001).”
• Assembly of seed-associated microbial communities within and across successive plant generations (2017, background): “Taken together, the predicted importance of dispersal for seed fungal community assembly and the observed differences in fungal diversity and composition within the same experimental plot are indicative of historical contingency (Fukami 2015).”
• Linking modern coexistence theory and contemporary niche theory (2017, background): “A cc ep te d A rt ic le In the current work, we constrained ourselves to stable equilibria when examining the relationship between the two frameworks, ignoring priority effects and alternative stable states (sensu Fukami, 2015).”
• Impacts of invasive biota in forest ecosystems in an aboveground–belowground context (2017, background): “An example of this involves the seasonal differences in resource uptake and litter loss by non-native forest understory species compared to native species (Fridley 2012; Jo et al. 2015).”
