运动对于大大小小的生物体的适应性至关重要。它决定了个体如何获取资源,逃避捕食者,交换遗传物质,以及对压力环境的反应。运动还影响更高组织层次的生态和进化动态,如人口和社区。然而,个体运动性与产生和维持微生物多样性的过程之间的联系却知之甚少。运动生态学是一个将个体的生理和行为特性与跨越空间、时间和生物组织尺度的运动模式联系起来的框架。通过综合细胞生物学,生态学和进化的见解,我们扩展了运动生态学的理论,以预测微生物运动的原因和后果。
Movement is critical for the fitness of organisms, both large and small. It dictates how individuals acquire resources, evade predators, exchange genetic material, and respond to stressful environments. Movement also influences ecological and evolutionary dynamics at higher organizational levels, such as populations and communities. However, the links between individual motility and the processes that generate and maintain microbial diversity are poorly understood. Movement ecology is a framework linking the physiological and behavioral properties of individuals to movement patterns across scales of space, time, and biological organization. By synthesizing insights from cell biology, ecology, and evolution, we expand theory from movement ecology to predict the causes and consequences of microbial movements.
