Global Microbiome Diversity Scaling in Hot Springs With DAR (Diversity-Area Relationship) Profiles

Global Microbiome Diversity Scaling in Hot Springs With DAR (Diversity-Area Relationship) Profiles

The spatial distribution of biodiversity (i.e., the biogeography) of the hot-spring microbiome is critical for understanding the microbial ecosystems in hot springs. We investigated the microbiome diversity scaling (changes) over space by analyzing the diversity-area relationship (DAR), which is an...
