| Abstract | Disentangling the role of mechanisms driving metacommunity structure is fundamental for conservation strategies. Several studies have been done in aquatic communities; however, little is known about the factors driving oomycete communities. This research aimed to investigate beta diversity patterns and assess the role of environmental (chemical, physical, and hydrologic), spatial, and temporal (sampling months) factors in driving oomycete beta diversity in a spatial extent of 33 km from two Brazilian rivers. We took water samples in 10 sites quarterly, from August 2017 to May 2018. The partition of beta diversity into its components – species replacement and richness difference – was performed using the Jaccard dissimilarity index. Distance-based redundancy analysis and variation partitioning were used to assess the relationship between explanatory variables and beta diversity. We found that beta diversity was spatially and temporally high, and the replacement component was the main driver of the oomycete metacommunity’s beta diversity. Replacement and total beta diversity were explained mainly by spatial location and the month of sampling, while the richness difference was more associated with the environmental variables chlorophyll a and ammonia. Our findings suggest that dispersal limitation (spatial) and temporal factors are the main drivers of the total beta diversity and replacement in the oomycete metacommunity, while species sorting (environmental factor) influences the richness difference. Accordingly, that taking temporal factors into account in metacommunity studies is important to explain beta diversity patterns, especially in rivers with remarkable variability in hydrological regime and under eutrophic conditions. |
