Food origin influences microbiota and stable isotope enrichment profiles of cold-adapted Collembola (Desoria ruseki)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Collembola are a group of globally distributed microarthropods that can tolerate low temperature and are active in extremely cold environments. While it is well known that animal diets can shape their microbiota, the microbiota of soil animals is not ...

Diatom and microarthropod communities of three airfields in Estonia – Their differences and similarities and possible linkages to airfield properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Even though airfields, which are often anthropologically modified natural areas, are continuously influenced by human activities, their soils are still dynamic ecosystems containing various habitats for microscopic groups of organisms which are

First de novo transcriptome analysis of the Antarctic springtail Cryptopygus terranovus (Collembola: Isotomidae) following mid-term heat exposure

open access: yesAntarctic Science, 2021
Global human activities, such as greenhouse emissions and pollution, are promoting global warming, environmental changes and biodiversity reduction. Pristine environments such as those of Antarctica are not immune to these phenomena, as is noticeable ...

High levels of intraspecific genetic divergences revealed for Antarctic springtails: evidence for small-scale isolation during Pleistocene glaciation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We examined levels of genetic variability within and among populations of three Antarctic springtail species (Arthropoda: Collembola) and tested the hypothesis that genetic divergences occur among glacially-isolated habitats.

Springtails—Worldwide Jumpers [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers for Young Minds, 2020
Springtails are tiny, six-legged animals that you meet every day, but hardly notice. They can survive in big cities, on ice in Antarctica, in the deepest caves, and in rainforest canopies. Some scientists call them the earliest known and the most numerous insects on Earth.

Evidence for Cryptic Diversity in the “Pan-Antarctic” Springtail Friesea antarctica and the Description of Two New Species

open access: yesInsects, 2020
The invertebrate terrestrial fauna of Antarctica is being investigated with increasing interest to discover how life interacts with the extreme polar environment and how millions of years of evolution have shaped their biodiversity.

Conversion of rainforest into oil palm and rubber plantations affects the functional composition of litter and soil Collembola

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Rainforest conversion and expansion of plantations in tropical regions are associated with changes in animal communities and biodiversity decline.
