Microbial Communities: Drivers of Ecosystem Functioning and Stability

EasyChair Preprint 12260

Abstract

This abstract explores the central role of microbial communities in shaping ecosystem processes and resilience. By decomposing organic matter, microbes facilitate nutrient recycling and energy flow within ecosystems, contributing to the maintenance of essential ecosystem functions. Additionally, microorganisms engage in symbiotic relationships with plants, animals, and other microbes, further enhancing ecosystem services such as nutrient acquisition, disease suppression, and stress tolerance. The stability of ecosystems is intricately linked to the diversity and composition of microbial communities.

Keyphrases: Facilitate, microbes, nutrient
