Microbiome

• Bee microbiome
• Ecological network

Community and network

Nicholson2012host is an early review.

• Bashan2016universality argues that the microbial interactions are mostly universal across hosts.
• Xiao2017mapping develops a method the interaction network without assuming any population dynamics model.
• Goldford2018emergent shows that coarse-grained understanding of the communities is possible based on nutrient availability, despite of species variability.
