Microbiome assembly predictably shapes diversity across a range of disturbance frequencies in experimental microcosms

Abstract Diversity is often implied to have a positive effect on the functional stability of ecological communities. However, its relationship with stochastic and deterministic assembly mechanisms remains largely unknown, particularly under fluctuating disturbances. Here, we subjected complex bacter...
