The role of space in explaining macroecological patterns of microbial abundance

Adriá}n Gutiérrez-Arroyo, Aniello Lampo, José A. Cuesta

The paper shows that spatial structure in metacommunities explains the gamma distribution of microbial abundance, challenging previous explanations based on ecological interactions.

Microbial populations hardly ever grow logistically and never sublinearly

José Camacho-Mateu, Aniello Lampo, Mario Castro, José A. Cuesta

The paper challenges the logistic model of microbial growth, showing it is better described by a generalized theta-logistic model, which accounts for different growth mechanisms and environmental fluctuations.
