Niche-based deterministic assembly processes strengthen the effects of β-diversity on metacommunity functioning of marine bacterioplankton

Abstract: Studies at a local community (α) level have shown that biodiversity positively affects ecosystem functioning due to niche-based deterministic processes like resource partitioning. Extending to a metacommunity (β) level, we hypothesize that β diversity also positively affects metacommunity functioning. We further hypothesize that the β diversity effect is stronger (more positive) when β diversity is increased by deterministic/non-random assembly processes. To test the hypotheses, we collected bacterioplankton a… Show more
