...Some studies have applied the neutral theory to phytoplankton community data and from this developed a “clumpy distribution” concept where species abundances seem to aggregate along trait lines such as cell size (Vergnon et al., 2009; Segura et al., 2013)....

...…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)....
