Effects of different management practices of organic uphill grasslands on the abundance and diversity of soil mesofauna

open access: yesJournal of Plant Protection Research, 2018
In this study the effect of different grassland managements (cattle grazing with different intensities and mowing) on soil mesofauna, i.e. mites (Acari) and springtails (Collembola), was studied.

Variations in Soil Microbiome Assembly Determine Hatching Induction of the Carrot Cyst Nematode Heterodera carotae

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 10, October 2026.
We evaluated the impact of three soil microbiota, selected by leek, turnip, and barley, on the hatching induction of the cyst nematode Heterodera carotae after carrot root exudate supply. Our results demonstrated that rotation crops can promote the abundance of promising candidate fungal species modulating the hatching induction success.

Soil mesofauna in antropogenicaly transformed biogeocenosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Досліджено мезофауну ґрунту примагістральних екосистем Закарпатської області. Прямого негативного впливу від діяльності залізничного транспорту на чисельність ґрунтової мезофауни не відмічено. Коливання чисельності тварин в ґрунті залежать від видового

The threat of a major tree pathogen to forest soil mesofauna food webs and ecosystem functioning

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Tree pathogens threaten the survival of many forest foundation tree species worldwide. However, there is limited knowledge of how dieback of foundation tree species may threaten other components of forest ecosystems, such as soil biodiversity and ...

ALTERNATIVE METHOD TO STUDY SOIL EDAPHIC FAUNA

open access: yesCiência Florestal, 2010
Study of soil organisms population may not detect differences of organisms number due to the difficulty of pitfall installation methods routinely used.

Soils and Ecosystems Across the Junction Hill Moraine Sequence (South Westland) With Variable Ultramafic Characteristics

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 3, September 2026.
Geochemical constraints imposed by ultramafic lithologies strongly affect soil and ecosystem development, typically signified by elevated trace element concentrations, nutrient imbalances and reduced biological productivity. In a reconnaissance study, we assessed the variability of soil and ecosystem conditions across a moraine complex with mixed ...

Mesofauna inhabiting algae in the tidal zone of the Barents Sea

open access: yes, 2011
No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.One of the most important problems in ecosystem functioning is the role of invertebrates, especially mesofauna, in mineralization and humification of organic matter.

Soil Arthropod Responses in Agroecosystem: Implications of Different Management and Cropping Systems

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
The EU’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP 2014–2020) on soil management points to the combination of sustainable food production with environmental protection, reduction of CO2 emissions, and safeguarding of soil biodiversity.

Soil Contamination Around the Copper Smelter and the Use of Soil Microarthropods as Bioindicators

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 11384-11403, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil contamination from smelter emissions, including heavy metals (HM), rare earth elements (REEs), and sulfur, poses a significant threat to soil ecosystems. In the immediate vicinity of the Głogów Copper Smelter, HM concentrations were several times higher than in more distant forest stands.

Three‐Year Monitoring of the Arthropod‐Based Soil Biological Quality Index (QBS‐ar) in Arable Fields of the Sentina Reserve: Spatial and Temporal Patterns and Environmental and Management Correlates

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Although the arthropod‐based Biological Soil Quality Index (QBS‐ar) is widely used to assess soil biological quality in agroecosystems, interpreting its variation under field conditions remains challenging. We characterised spatial and temporal patterns in QBS‐ar and complementary arthropod‐based indicators across four arable fields belonging ...
