Niche and metabolic principles explain patterns of diversity and distribution: theory and a case study with soil bacterial communities

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The causes of biodiversity patterns are controversial and elusive due to complex environmental variation, covarying changes in communities, and lack of baseline and null theories to differentiate straightforward causes from more complex mechanisms. To address these limitations, we developed general diversity theory integrating metabolic principles with niche-based community assembly. We evaluated this theory by investigating patterns in the diversity and distribution of soil bacteria taxa across four orders of magnitude variation in spatial scale on an Antarctic mountainside in low complexity, highly oligotrophic soils. Our theory predicts that lower temperatures should reduce taxon niche widths along environmental gradients due to decreasing growth rates, and the changing niche widths should lead to contrasting alpha- and beta-diversity patterns. In accord with the predictions, alpha-diversity, niche widths and occupancies decreased while beta-diversity increased with increasing eleva
