Soil microbial species loss affects plant biomass and survival of an introduced bacterial strain, but not inducible plant defencesCompetition and predation as possible causes of bacterial rarityLow abundant soil bacteria can be metabolically versatile and fast growingA low proportion of rare bacterial taxa responds to abiotic changes compared with dominant taxaCauses and consequences of soil bacterial rarityCultivation-success of rare soil bacteria is not influenced by incubation time and growth mediumWhere less may be more: How the rare biosphere pulls ecosystems stringsIncreased likelihood of high nitrous oxide (N<sub>2</sub>o) exchange in soils at reduced microbial diversityControlling the microbiome: microhabitat adjustments for successful biocontrol strategies in soil and human gut
