Post-fire litter microsites: Safe for seeds, unsafe for seedlings [PDF]

, 1993
We explore the effect of post—fire microsites on seed and seedling distribution and hence their potential role in community restoration. A summer wildfire and control burn in a sclerophyll shrubland in mediterranean Australia produced mosaics of ...

Scattered tree species’ leaf litter quality and impact on soil properties in enset homegardens of South Ethiopia: a case for conserving old trees

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
Enset (Ensete ventricosum) is among the under-researched African crops that serve as a staple food crop in South Ethiopia. Despite potential benefits, tree species are rarely integrated into enset farms, and their potential to enhance soil fertility in ...

PERFORMANCE, CARCASS YIELD AND LITTER QUALITY OF BROILERS RAISED ON LITTERS TREATED WITH MICRO-ORGANISMS

Ciência Animal Brasileira, 2013
O presente trabalho objetivou avaliar o efeito da adição de micro-organismos benéficos na cama sobre o desempenho, rendimento de carcaça e a qualidade da cama de frangos de corte. Foram utilizados 240 pintos de um dia de idade distribuídos em um delineamento em blocos casualizados com quatro tratamentos e quatro repetições.

Litter-type specific microbial responses to the transformation of leaf litter into millipede feces

, 2015
The transformation of leaf litter into fecal pellets by saprophagous macroarthropods has long been suggested to play an important role in litter decomposition by altering microbial processes.

Stage-dependent associations between leaf litter chemistry and decomposition under nitrogen deposition and reduced precipitation in a subtropical forest

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change
Litter decomposition regulates carbon sequestration and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems and is sensitive to nitrogen deposition and drought. As decomposition proceeds, litter chemistry changes and the decomposition rate decrease, likely with a ...
