The paper shows that microbial diversity in river biofilms predicts resistance to invasion by antibiotic-resistant bacteria, with higher diversity reducing the likelihood of establishment.

The paper expands the MiDAS database with global anaerobic digester microbiome data, revealing environmental influences on microbial communities and identifying core taxa.

The paper investigates whether microbial diversity acts as a barrier to the spread of antimicrobial resistance genes in the environment, finding that higher diversity correlates with lower ARG abundance in structured soils but not in dynamic rivers.
