Enhancing microbial predator–prey detection with network and trait-based analyses

Our results support the idea of using network analyses for inferring predator-prey interactions, but at the same time call for cautionary consideration of the results, by combining them with trait-based approaches to increase confidence in the prediction of biological interactions. Video Abstract.
