Title：Unraveling the Emergent Properties of Plant-Microbe Symbiosis and Community Assembly within an Eco-Evolutionary Context

Host：Dr. Yin-Ru Chiang

Abstract
      Nearly all organisms coexist within diverse communities that intricately connect them through a web of ecological and evolutionary interactions—collectively referred to as the eco-evolutionary context. In this talk, I will delve into how embracing this complexity leads to valuable insights into the emergence of ecosystem functions and properties. I will provide two illustrative examples: the predictive assembly of multispecies microbial communities and a plant-microbe symbiosis characterized by both mutualistic and antagonistic interactions.
