Figure 1 in Van Galen et al. (2025): "The PLFA and enzyme activity database contains 12,258 samples from 3,743 locations. The purple colour gradient shows the degree to which climatic space is represented by the samples (scale of 0 to 1, see Technical Validation section). Grey regions do not have sufficient climate data available to evaluate climatic representation. The histogram and donut plots show number of samples (in parentheses) from the PLFA (blue) and enzyme (red) datasets collected in different years, from different continents, from different biomes43, and within different categories of maximum sample depth. Only large segments of donut plots are labelled. Temp. = temperate."

We tackle key challenges in ODE-based models: identifiability, instability, underfitting, & overfitting.

Our integrated approach offers a roadmap to more reliable & predictive microbiome models.

Figure 1 in Ma et al. (2025): "Proposed distribution of microbes along the soil-plant-human gut microbiome axis. Soil, plants, and the human gut are each considered distinct habitats. Within each habitat, specific microbial communities known as habitat specialists are identified. Microbes that are distributed across all habitats are termed here as generalists. Based on their abundance and functions, a group of cross-kingdom microbiota is proposed among the generalist microbes. Created in BioRender. Ma, H. (2025) https://BioRender.com/b51e6if."
