Leaf litter and soil invertebrates

2018
The diversity of invertebrates occupying the leaf litter and organic layer of soil can be quantified to examine abiotic and biotic questions. This lab can be used as a starting point for a long-term study or short-term activity to study invertebrates.

Calling for comprehensive explorations between soil invertebrates and arbuscular mycorrhizas.

Trends in Plant Science, 2022
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and soil invertebrates represent a large proportion of total soil biomass and biodiversity and are vital for plant performance, soil structure, and biogeochemical cycling.

Assessing potential indicator of endocrine-disrupting property of chemicals using soil invertebrates.

Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Toxicology & pharmacology : CBP, 2021
Vitellogenin has been regarded as an acceptable indicator for evaluating the endocrine-disrupting property of chemicals using fish. However, the endocrine-disrupting property of chemicals has been rarely evaluated using soil species.

Uptake, toxicity, and maternal transfer of cadmium in the oribatid soil mite, Oppia nitens: Implication in the risk assessment of cadmium to soil invertebrates.

Environmental Pollution, 2020
Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal of concern in contaminated sites because of its high toxicity to soil biota and humans. Typically, Cd exposure is thought to be dominated by dissolved Cd in soil pore water and, thus, dermal uptake.

Soil Invertebrates

1999
Abstract The array of species constituting soil invertebrates is very large, encompassing virtually all terrestrial invertebrate phyla. Communities of soil fauna offer opportunities for the study of such ecological phenomena as species interactions, resource utilization, and responses of ecosystems to perturbations to ecosystems.

Soil invertebrates as bioindicators of urban soil quality

Environmental Pollution, 2012
This study aimed at relating the abundance and diversity of invertebrate communities of urban soils to chemical and physical soil characteristics and to identify the taxa most sensitive or tolerant to soil stressors. The invertebrate community of five urban soils in Naples, Italy, was sampled.

Digital mapping of soil invertebrates using environmental attributes in a deciduous forest ecosystem

Geoderma, 2019
The simultaneous effect of the environmental factors as determinants of soil invertebrate community structures is little understood. This study was carried out at two depths (0–10, 10–20 cm) in the forest ecosystem located in Golestan province, north of ...

Organochlorine Insecticide Residues in Soil Invertebrates

Nature, 1966
THE uptake and transmission of organochlorine insecticide residues in food chains has been described for an aquatic ecosystem1. There is, however, little information relating to the terrestrial sphere in respect of insecticide concentrations occurring in invertebrates which form the food of many common species of birds2,3.

Protecting vulnerable individuals in a population: is the avoidance response of juvenile soil invertebrates more sensitive than the adults response?

Chemosphere, 2019
Juveniles are generally considered more sensitive to contaminants than adults. However, it is unknown if the behavioral responses of juvenile soil invertebrates is different than the adults.
