在生态学中,生物多样性-生态系统功能(BEF)研究在过去的二十年中已经从分类学的角度转向功能,并成功应用了基于特征的方法。这一转变为更深入地机械理解生物多样性在维持多种生态系统过程和服务方面的作用提供了机会。在本文中,我们强调的研究集中在BEF的微生物群落,重点是整合基于特征的方法,微生物生态学。在这样做的过程中,我们探索了一些固有的挑战和机会,了解BEF使用微生物系统。例如,微生物生物学家使用基因遗传学来表征群落,这些基因遗传学通常无法解决功能性状。此外,现有的微生物BEF研究的实验设计往往不足以解开BEF的关系。我们认为,结合生态生理学的研究与当代分子工具在一个基于特征的框架可以加强我们的能力,微生物多样性的生态系统过程。我们的结论是,这种基于性状的方法是一个很有前途的框架,以增加对微生物BEF关系的理解,从而产生系统的原则,在微生物生态学和更普遍的生态学。
In ecology, biodiversity-ecosystem functioning (BEF) research has seen a shift in perspective from taxonomy to function in the last two decades, with successful application of trait-based approaches. This shift offers opportunities for a deeper mechanistic understanding of the role of biodiversity in maintaining multiple ecosystem processes and services. In this paper, we highlight studies that have focused on BEF of microbial communities with an emphasis on integrating trait-based approaches to microbial ecology. In doing so, we explore some of the inherent challenges and opportunities of understanding BEF using microbial systems. For example, microbial biologists characterize communities using gene phylogenies that are often unable to resolve functional traits. Additionally, experimental designs of existing microbial BEF studies are often inadequate to unravel BEF relationships. We argue that combining eco-physiological studies with contemporary molecular tools in a trait-based framework can reinforce our ability to link microbial diversity to ecosystem processes. We conclude that such trait-based approaches are a promising framework to increase the understanding of microbial BEF relationships and thus generating systematic principles in microbial ecology and more generally ecology.
