Natural Hybridization Between <i>Quercus crassipes</i> and <i>Q. crassifolia</i> (Fagaceae) Is a Key Process to Ensure the Biodiversity of Their Associated Lichen Community by Leticia Valencia-Cuevas, Jennie Melhado-Carboney, Efraín Tovar-Sánchez

“…However, little is known about how the genetic traits of a host tree influence which lichen species grow on it and, consequently, the community structure of this funga. In this study, we investigated how the genetic diversity GD of host oak taxa (<i>Quercus crassifolia</i>, <i>Q. crassipes</i> and their putative hybrid: <i>Q</i>. × <i>dysophylla</i>) influence the community structure of the associated epiphytic lichen community in two hybrid zones (HZs) in Central Mexico. …”

Pawpaws prevent predictability: A locally dominant tree alters understory beta‐diversity and community assembly by Anna C. Wassel, Jonathan A. Myers

“…Dominant species can increase the importance of deterministic community assembly by competitively excluding species in a consistent way across local communities, resulting in low site‐to‐site variation in community composition (beta‐diversity) and nonrandom community structure. In contrast, dominant species could increase the importance of stochastic community assembly by reducing the total number of individuals in local communities (community size), resulting in high beta‐diversity and more random community structure. …”
