Why some host species hold larger symbiont abundances than others is an open question in ecology. Comparison of the empirical scaling of feather mite abundance with predictions from the metabolic theory of ecology showed that space (number of feather barbs of bird species), and not energy, was the main constraint to feather mite infracommunities ...

Influence of 90-year potato and winter rye monocultures under different fertilisation on soil mites
The influence of the cultivation of a single crop (potato or winter rye) on mite assemblages was evaluated. Both crops were cultivated in a long-term monoculture (90 years). The response of mites to fertilisation treatment (mineral with manure or mineral
