This study explored how the chemical nature of organic matter drives microbial community composition and their metabolic pathways in river sediment and adjacent riparian cottonwood tree stems
Separate RDAs of bacteria, fungi and other microeukaryotes communities according to host group (cryoconite, fully fed tardigrades, starved tardigrades).
Percentages of the “above,” “below,” and “neutral” partitions of bacterial communities obtained by fitting Sloan et al.’s [39] neutral model. The fitting proportion of bacterial communities by the Slo
