Backbones of evolutionary history test biodiversity theory for microbes

Creator:

O'Dwyer, James P., Kembel, Steven W., and Sharpton, Thomas J.

Abstract:

Identifying the ecological and evolutionary mechanisms that determine biological diversity is a central question in ecology. In microbial ecology, phylogenetic diversity is an increasingly common and relevant means of quantifying community diversity, particularly given the challenges in defining unambiguous species units from environmental sequence data. We explore patterns of phylogenetic...
