从功能、系统发育和地理指标推断生物相互作用仍然是生态学中的一大挑战。我们提出了一个概念框架来推断区域物种库内生物相互作用网络的支柱。首先，识别相互作用的群体以排序链接并消除物种之间禁止的相互作用。其次，通过检查物种共存的地理环境来消除额外的联系。第三，提出假设来建立物种之间的相互作用概率。我们使用陆地和海洋系统中已发表的食物网来说明该框架。我们的结论是，通过仔细整合数据与理论，可以对生命网络进行初步描述。
Inferring biotic interactions from functional, phylogenetic and geographical proxies remains one great challenge in ecology. We propose a conceptual framework to infer the backbone of biotic interaction networks within regional species pools. First, interacting groups are identified to order links and remove forbidden interactions between species. Second, additional links are removed by examination of the geographical context in which species co-occur. Third, hypotheses are proposed to establish interaction probabilities between species. We illustrate the framework using published food-webs in terrestrial and marine systems. We conclude that preliminary descriptions of the web of life can be made by careful integration of data with theory.
