Abstract:The relationship between the taxonomic diversity and the function of microbial communities is complex. Specifically, the ecological mechanisms that drive the dynamics of microbial populations and the consequences of these dynamics on functional traits have remained elusive. Among the simplest but natural microbial communities are dark fermentation consortia, a subset of the more diverse and complex microbial communities, anaerobic digestion communities. Dark fermentation consortia have been of interest as they… Show more
