...These observed 233 patterns are also in accordance with ecological studies proposing deterministic and stochastic 234 processes balancing each other to allow coexistence (12), with communities exhibiting 235 variations in the strength of stabilization mechanisms and the degree of fitness equivalence 236 among species (11)....

...…a century of research, it is still not understood how species-rich communities are maintained in the face of the theoretical prediction that single-species dominance is more likely than the stable coexistence of numerous species competing for small numbers of common resources (Hutchinson 1961)....
