Abstract Background Plants live with diverse microbial communities which profoundly affect multiple facets of host performance, but if and how development impacts the assembly, functions interactions crop microbiomes are poorly understood. Here we examined both bacterial fungal across soils, epiphytic endophytic niches leaf root, plastic fake plant (representing environment-originating microbes) at three developmental stages maize two contrasting sites, further explored potential function phylloplane based on metagenomics. Results Our results suggested that stage had a much stronger influence diversity, composition interkingdom networks in compartments than strongest effect phylloplane. Phylloplane were co-shaped by growth seasonal environmental factors, air (represented plants) as its important source. Further, found more strongly driven deterministic processes early similar pattern was for late stage. Moreover, taxa played role network yield prediction stage, while did so Metagenomic analyses indicated possessed higher functional diversity genes related to nutrient provision enriched N assimilation C degradation Coincidently, abundant beneficial like Actinobacteria, Burkholderiaceae Rhizobiaceae observed saprophytic fungi Conclusions suggest influences microbiome assembly functions, take differentiated ecological different development.

Abstract Soil communities are intricately linked to ecosystem functioning, and a predictive understanding of how assemble in response environmental change is great ecological importance. Little known about the assembly processes governing abundant rare fungal across agro‐ecosystems, particularly with regard their adaptation. By considering taxa, we tested thresholds phylogenetic signals for preferences complex gradients reflect adaptation, explored factors influencing based on large‐scale soil survey agricultural fields eastern China. We found that taxa exhibited remarkably broader stronger compared taxa. Neutral played key role shaping subcommunity subcommunity. Null model analysis revealed was less clustered phylogenetically governed primarily by dispersal limitation, while homogeneous selection major process available sulfur factor mediating balance between stochastic deterministic both subcommunities, as indicated an increase stochasticity higher concentration. Based macroecological spatial scale datasets, our study potential adaptation identified distinct community fields. These results contribute mechanisms underlying generation maintenance diversity global change.

Unraveling the relative importance of ecological processes regulating microbial community structure is a central goal in ecology. Here, we used high-throughput sequencing to examine contribution selective and neutral assembly abundant rare subcommunities from three subtropical bays China. We found that bacterial taxa were distinctly different diversity, despite similar biogeographic patterns strong distance-decay relationships, but dispersal was more limited than taxa. Furthermore, environmental (selective processes) spatial (neutral factors seemed govern biogeography subcommunities, although both explained only small fraction variation within subcommunity. More importantly, partitioning (based on adjusted R2 redundancy analysis) showed exhibited slightly greater influence compared selection; however, subcommunity had much stronger response (17.3% pure variance explained) shown by bacteria (3.5%). These results demonstrate selection large proportion unexplained (91.1%) implies complex mechanisms may exist shape assemblages bays.

Environmental transitions often result in resource mixtures that overcome limitations to microbial metabolism, resulting biogeochemical hotspots and moments. Riverine systems, where groundwater mixes with surface water (the hyporheic zone), are spatially complex temporally dynamic, making development of predictive models challenging. Spatial temporal variations zone communities a key, but understudied, component riverine function. Here, investigate the coupling among groundwater–surface mixing, biogeochemistry, we apply ecological theory, aqueous DNA sequencing ultra-high-resolution organic carbon profiling field samples collected across times locations representing broad range mixing conditions. Our results indicate stimulates heterotrophic respiration, alters composition, causes processes shift from stochastic deterministic is associated elevated abundances taxa may degrade suite compounds. Groundwater-surface zones link critical ecosystem domains, attendant microbe-biogeochemistry-hydrology interactions poorly known. authors show groundwater-surface shifts ecology deterministic.

Summary The factors determining stochastic and deterministic processes that drive microbial community structure, specifically the balance of abundant rare bacterial taxa, remain underexplored. Here we examined biogeographic patterns taxa explored environmental influencing their assembly in agricultural fields across eastern China. More phylogenetic turnover correlating with spatial distance was observed than sub‐communities. Homogeneous selection main process for both sub‐communities; however, sub‐community more tightly clustered phylogenetically sensitive to dispersal limitations sub‐community. Rare rice maize were governed by processes, which showed higher operational taxonomic unit richness. We propose a conceptual paradigm wherein soil pH mean annual temperature mediate sub‐communities respectively. A leads For sub‐community, dominance stochasticity low‐temperature regions indicates weaker niche‐based exclusion arrival evolutionary lineages. These findings suggest are dependent on distinct variables agro‐ecosystems.
