Implications of streamlining theory for microbial ecology (2014, background): “In long-term studies of population dynamics in the ocean, easily cultured copiotrophic organisms, such as members of the genera Alteromonas and Vibrio, are frequently rare but bloom stochastically (Vergin et al., 2013).”
Ecology and exploration of the rare biosphere (2015, background): “Often, devia tions of rare taxa from broad environmental filtering are related to a narrow ecological niche, such as that suitable for copiotrophic taxa, which may be adapted to less frequent disturbances 40 .”
Conditionally Rare Taxa Disproportionately Contribute to Temporal Changes in Microbial Diversity (2014, result): “The dynamic of rarity to prevalence has also been observed in two other studies of marine bacterioplankton (14, 26).”
