Abstract:Patterns and drivers of succession provide insight into the mechanisms
that govern community assembly and are indicators of community
resilience and stability but are still poorly understood in microbial
communities. We assessed whether the successional trends of woody
vegetation are mirrored by foliar fungal endophyte communities of three
tree species that are abundant across the woody successional gradient
using a total amplicon sequencing approach. Additionally, we test the
relative contribution of host ide… Show more
