Introduction Succession is the measurable process in which a community changes and thus the community as a whole is altered (Friedman 2017). To study succession‚ one must use one of the following methods: to observe any patterns that occur‚ to conduct experiments that manipulate specific variables in a community‚ or to construct a model that may undergo succession. One example of an experiment that measures microbial succession was an experiment observing changes in traditional Chinese soy sauce
