[HTML][HTML] Mortality causes universal changes in microbial community composition
CI Abreu, J Friedman, VL Andersen Woltz… - Nature …, 2019 - nature.com
All organisms are sensitive to the abiotic environment, and a deteriorating environment can
cause extinction. However, survival in a multispecies community depends upon interactions, …

Higher temperatures generically favour slower-growing bacterial species in multispecies communities
Temperature is one of the fundamental environmental variables that determine the composition
and function of microbial communities. However, a predictive understanding of how …

Environmental fluctuations reshape an unexpected diversity-disturbance relationship in a microbial community
Environmental disturbances have long been theorized to play a significant role in shaping
the diversity and composition of ecosystems. However, an inability to specify the …

[HTML][HTML] Microbial communities display alternative stable states in a fluctuating environment
CI Abreu, VL Andersen Woltz… - PLoS computational …, 2020 - journals.plos.org
The effect of environmental fluctuations is a major question in ecology. While it is widely
accepted that fluctuations and other types of disturbances can increase biodiversity, there are …

Warmer temperatures favor slower-growing bacteria in natural marine communities
Earth’s life-sustaining oceans harbor diverse bacterial communities that display varying
composition across time and space. While particular patterns of variation have been linked to a …

[HTML][HTML] Strong environmental memory revealed by experimental evolution in static and fluctuating environments
Evolution in a static environment, such as a laboratory setting with constant and uniform
conditions, often proceeds via large-effect beneficial mutations that may become maladaptive in …
