Manipulating the physical distance between cells during soil colonization reveals the importance of biotic interactions in microbial community assembly
Abstract Background Microbial communities are of tremendous importance for ecosystem functioning and yet we know little about the ecological processes driving the assembly of these communities in the environment. Here, we used an unprecedented experimental approach based on the manipulation of physi...
