Dispersal-Based Microbial Community Assembly Decreases Biogeochemical Function (2017, background): “In natural systems, microbial community compositional differences can be due to competitive dynamics that select for organisms based on their niche optima [48,49] and to immigration of new taxa from the regional species pool [7,32,50].”
Microbial Biogeography: Patterns in Microbial Diversity across Space and Time (2008, neutral): “have studied biogeographical questions for many decades and there has been a recent resurgence in interest in microbial biogeography (Green and Bohannan, 2006; Martiny et al., 2006; Ramette and Tiedje, 2007).”
The importance of dispersal related and local factors in shaping the taxonomic structure of diatom metacommunities (2009, background): “What data exists for microbial communities usually presents conflicting results both between and within various taxonomic groups (Green and Bohannan 2006, Soininen et al. 2007), which precludes an assessment of whether microbial ecology converges with general ecological theory.”
The distance decay of similarity in communities of ectomycorrhizal fungi in different ecosystems and scales (2013, background): “…communities have been traditionally considered to exhibit negligible biogeographic differentiation, recent studies indicate that microbes may have a substantial distance-decay pattern (Green et al. 2004; Green & Bohannan 2006; Fierer & Jackson 2006; but see Queloz et al. 2011 for root endophytes).”
Biogeography of Bacterioplankton in Inland Waters (2008, positive): “As a consequence, neither the relative importance of regional factors alone nor the joint effects of regional and local environmental factors on BCC in inland waters have been extensively analysed (cf. Beisner et al., 2006; Green & Bohannan, 2006).”
Long-term changes in soil microbial communities during primary succession (2014, background): “593 594 In microbial ecology, it has been posited that “everything is everywhere but the environment 595 selects” (Green and Bohannan, 2006).”
The role of ecological theory in microbial ecology (2007, background): “The spatial scaling of microbial diversity is now being addressed by coupling the molecular characterization of microbial communities with macroecological theor”
How do freshwater organisms cross the “dry ocean”? A review on passive dispersal and colonization processes with a special focus on temporary ponds (2015, background): “…and ecological features of organisms, allowed to criticize the EiE hypothesis even for bacterial communities (e.g. Roberts & Cohan, 1995; Green & Bohannan, 2006; Martiny et al., 2006; O’Malley, 2007; Fierer, 2008; Foissner & Hawksworth, 2009 and literature therein) and established…”
Vineyard soil bacterial diversity and composition revealed by 16S rRNA genes: Differentiation by geographic features (2015, background): “This suggests dispersal limitation is still important, even at this local scale (Green and Bohannan, 2006; Martiny et al., 2006; Fierer, 2008).”
Bacterial communities in soil mimic patterns of vegetative succession and ecosystem climax but are resilient to change between seasons (2013, background): “How bacterial communities become structured over seasons and during the natural process of soil accrual, weathering and nutrient transformations (pedogenesis) over much longer time scales could provide clues to the underlying mechanisms and feedbacks that regulate community assembly (Green and Bohan”
The role of molecular genetics in sculpting the future of integrative biogeography (2008, background): “…rudimentary knowledge of how microbial ribotype diversity is influenced via phenotype by the environment, however, precludes an important perspective on the major thesis in microbial biogeography: that “everything is everywhere, the environment selects” (e.g., see Green and Bohannan, 2006).”
Microbial community structure and its functional implications (2009, background): “Nevertheless, in practice and to the extent that most measurements allow ( Box 2 ), numerous studies suggest that most microorganisms do not seem to be cosmopolitan, even within a given habitat type, and discernible biogeographical patterns are typica”
