The MetaInvert soil invertebrate genome resource provides insights into below-ground biodiversity and evolution

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Soil invertebrates are among the least understood metazoans on Earth. Thus far, the lack of taxonomically broad and dense genomic resources has made it hard to thoroughly investigate their evolution and ecology.

Inconsistent Patterns of Soil Fauna Biodiversity and Soil Physicochemical Characteristic Along an Urbanization Gradient

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Urbanization has induced substantial changes in soil physicochemical characteristic, which plays an important role in regulating soil fauna biodiversity in forests and grasslands.

Potential Impacts of Agroforestry on Controlling Soil Degradation by Water Erosion in the Agricultural Lands of Foothills North-West of Dahra (Mostaganem, Algeria)

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
Located in the North-West of Algeria, the foothills of Dahra are affected by the problems of water erosion where agricultural soils are under severe degradation due to the mismatch influence between a semi-arid climate and the prevailing cropping systems

How 75 years of rubber monocropping affects soil fauna and nematodes as the bioindicators for soil biodiversity quality index

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2022
Natural rubber consumption has led to the expansion of rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) plantations which affects the deforestation and ecosystem. However, no study of the long-term effect of rubber plantations on soil biodiversity has been carried out yet ...
