The Use of Ecoacoustics to Monitor Soil Ecology: A Critical Review With Reference to Earthworms

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 76, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
ABSTRACT The use of ecoacoustics to monitor soil ecology was identified as a priority in the 2024 horizon scan of global biological conservation issues. Proponents suggest it will have societal impacts by improving soil health assessments, enhance soil biodiversity monitoring and facilitate the conservation, remediation and management of soil ...

A new approach to investigate arthropod biodiversity in forest ecosystems, using meta‐barcoding on trap combinations

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
For biodiversity monitoring of arthropods with a limited additional fieldwork, our trap combination reduced the taxonomic bias in the local samples compared to other studies relying only on Malaise traps. This represented the orders of the local fauna better.

The use of plant, bacterial and fungal resources in soil food webs of ecto‐ and arbuscular mycorrhiza‐dominated deciduous forests

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 9, Page 2398-2412, September 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil food webs, driven by complex interactions among plants, microbes and invertebrates, are crucial for carbon and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. Over the last decade, it has become evident that forests dominated by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) or ...

No Mate, No Problem: Molecular Mechanisms Involved in Parthenogenesis in the Cosmopolitan Earthworm Aporrectodea trapezoides (Annelida, Clitellata)

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 16, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Approximately, 40% of earthworm species can reproduce by parthenogenesis. This is the case for the cosmopolitan species, Aporrectodea trapezoides, although sexual forms have been described sporadically. We analyse the genotypes and microbiomes of 30 individuals from four localities where both forms appear in order to understand the ...
