Soil bacterial communities along latitudinal gradients in North-South Transect of eastern China

Biogeographical and evolutionary processes of most microbial taxa that determine the size of the regional species pool are often invoked to explain large-scale diversity gradients, but explicitly local ecological mechanisms that interactively shape gradients of β-diversity have not been explored.

绝大多数决定区域物种库规模的微生物类群，其生物地理学过程与演化过程常被用于解释大尺度多样性梯度的形成规律；然而，能够协同塑造β多样性梯度的显性局域生态机制，迄今尚未得到系统探索。
