Ecological linkages between aboveground and belowground biota.
All terrestrial ecosystems consist of aboveground and belowground components that interact to influence community- and ecosystem-level processes and properties. Here we show how these components are closely interlinked at the community level, reinforced by a greater degree of specificity between plants and soil organisms than has been previously supposed. As such, aboveground and belowground co...
متن کاملInfluence of an invasive ant on grazing and detrital communities and nutrient fluxes in a tropical forest
Trophic interactions are important features of terrestrial ecosystems affecting grazing and detrital food webs and ecosystem processes (Lawrence & Wise, 2000; Schmitz et al., 2000; Wardle et al., 2005; Fukami et al., 2006; Dunham, 2008); however, pathways linking these subsystems have long been ignored. Detrital systems and their processes had been assumed to be primarily donor-controlled (via ...
متن کاملThe effects of crude oil on marine microbial communities in sediments from the Persian Gulf and the Caspian Sea: A microcosm experiment
Changes in the microbial community in response to catastrophic oil spills in marine and fresh water environments have been well documented. Molecular methods provide tools for analyzing the entire bacterial community, covering also those bacteria that have not been cultured in the laboratory. In this study, four different microcosms were set up containing sediments collected from the Persian Gu...

متن کاملInternalizing conservation through our own microbes.
Emerging links between the microbes that inhabit our own bodies and our health promise to revolutionize the way we perceive ecology and conservation. Redford et al. (2012 [this issue]) rightly argue that we should link the issue of the human microbiome and health to the broader conservation of species. These microbial communities are the product of 3.5 billion years of evolution and perceive ma...
