Conditionally Rare Taxa Disproportionately Contribute to Temporal Changes in Microbial Diversity
Microbial communities typically contain many rare taxa that make up the majority of the observed membership, yet the contribution of this microbial “rare biosphere” to community dynamics is unclear. Using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing of 3,237 samples from 42 time series of microbial communities from...
