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

Communications 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.

Interactive effects of global change drivers as determinants of the link between soil biodiversity and ecosystem functioning

Global Change Biology, 2022
Biodiversity, both aboveground and belowground, is negatively affected by global changes such as drought or warming. This loss of biodiversity impacts Earth's ecosystems, as there is a positive relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning (

LUCAS Soil Biodiversity and LUCAS Soil Pesticides, new tools for research and policy development

European Journal of Soil Science, 2022
The European Green Deal puts a healthy environment at the core of policy‐making initiatives in the European Union (EU). Soil, due to its nature, is a central actor to be considered when developing and implementing actions in many areas, from biodiversity

Vineyard Management and Its Impacts on Soil Biodiversity, Functions, and Ecosystem Services

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Healthy soils form the basis of sustainable viticulture, where soil characteristics have a direct impact on wine quantity and quality. Soil not only provides water and nutrients to vines, but is also a living medium containing micro- and macroorganisms ...

Soil biodiversity and nature-mimicry in agriculture; the power of metaphor?

Outlook on Agriculture, 2022
Attention to soil biodiversity and its importance for sustainable food production has markedly increased in recent years. In particular, the loss of soil biodiversity as a consequence of intensive agriculture, land degradation and climate change has ...

Soil Biodiversity and the Environment [PDF]

Annual Review of Environment and Resources, 2015
Soils represent a significant reservoir of biological diversity that underpins a broad range of key processes and moderate ecosystem service provision. Our understanding of the role that soil organisms play in ecosystems is still developing, but the increased investigation into biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships in soils over the past ...

Challenges of and opportunities for protecting European soil biodiversity

Conservation Biology, 2022
Soil biodiversity and related ecosystem functions are neglected in most biodiversity assessments and nature conservation actions. We examined how society, and particularly policy makers, have addressed these factors worldwide with a focus on Europe and ...
