Microbial secondary succession in soil microcosms of a desert oasis in the Cuatro Cienegas Basin, Mexico
Ecological succession is one of the most important concepts in ecology. However for microbial community succession, there is a lack of a solid theoretical framework regarding succession in microorganisms. This is in part due to microbial community complexity and plasticity but also because little is...
