Effects of Dispersal and Initial Diversity on the Composition and Functional Performance of Bacterial Communities.
Natural communities are open systems and consequently dispersal can play an important role for the diversity, composition and functioning of communities at the local scale. It is, however, still unclear how effects of dispersal differ depending on the initial diversity of local communities. Here we...
