Living in the moss. Mesofaunal communities of Racomitrium lanuginosum in Icelandic rangelands
… the effect of large herbivores on the arthropod mesofauna in the bryosphere has yet to be explored. The aim of this study is to contribute to the knowledge of the mesofaunal communities of the bryosphere of Racomitrium lanuginosum in Icelandic heathlands and assess the impact of large herbivores …

Exemplo de uma sucessão faunística durante a decomposição em um amontoado de folhiço
… of an existing succession between the soil mesofauna developing groups during the decomposition of the litter, systematic sampling were conducted in a previously selected biotope – called by the author “fosso de folhiço” – during 12 consecutive months (June 1977 to July 1978). Throughout 360 …

From litter decomposition to soil organic matter formation: using stable isotopes to determine the fate of carbon and nitrogen
… microarthropods to determine the impact of mesofauna on the fate of litter derived N. In the laboratory, soil from the field experiment was incubated for 150 to determine how different SOM pools contributed to respiration and leaching. Microarthropods do not increase overall N mineralization …

Belowground impacts of regenerative agriculture in a South African seed production system
… providing information on the macrofauna and mesofauna of the area. These included ants, beetles, spiders, and springtails. Soil fauna were sampled every two months for a year, using pitfall traps. Differences in species richness and abundance of the four study taxa were assessed in relation …

Effect of an alternative viticulture on native entomopathogenic nematodes and other organisms linked to their soil food web in DOCa Rioja vineyards
… innovative methodologies to isolate and identify mesofauna to achieve this aim. Firstly, we estimated different soil activities, including those associated with EPNs, by baiting the soil samples with Galleria mellonella larvae. Besides, we used speciesspecific primers/probe qPCR sets to screen and …
