Suppressive service of the soil food web: Effects of environmental management (2007, background): “manure. Significant relationship between the EI and soil nitrogen have been observed ( Ferris and Matute, 2003; Ferris et al., 2004) but not in this study.”
Arbuscular Mycorrhizas, Microbial Communities, Nutrient Availability, and Soil Aggregates in Organic Tomato Production (2006, background): “Nematode faunal analyses generated indicators of food web structure, status, functionality, and resource availability (Ferris et al., 2001; Ferris and Matute, 2003).”
Nematode faunal response to long-term application of nitrogen fertilizer and organic manure in Northeast China (2009, background): “Nematode communities are quite susceptible to disturbances across several types of land use in recent studies (Wu et al., 2002; Ferris and Matute, 2003; Liang et al., 2005, 2007; Okada and Harada, 2007; Powell, 2007).”
Effects of tillage and residue management on soil nematode communities in North China (2012, background): “residue quantity, indicating that the residue quantity was an important driver of soil nematodes at the trophic level (Ferris and Matute, 2003; DuPont et al., 2009).”
Responses of grassland soil nematodes and protozoa to multi-year and single-year applications of dairy manure slurry and fertilizer (2005, background): “Hassink et al., 1993; Opperman et al., 1993; Forge and Simard, 2000, 2001; Ferris and Matute, 2003 ).”
Cattle grazing increases microbial biomass and alters soil nematode communities in subtropical pastures (2006, methodology): “Ratios of fungivores (F) to bacterivores (B) were calculated, both as F/B (Freckman and Ettema, 1993) and as F/(F+B) (Neher, 1999). The maturity index (MI) as refined by Yeates and Bird (1994) was calculated as the weighted average of colonizer–persister (c–p) values for each taxon according to the ”
Grain Legumes in Northern Great Plains : Impacts on Selected Biological Soil Processes (2007, background): “…soil increases the biomass of bacterivorous (bacteria-feeding) nematodes early in the decomposition process, whereas addition of high C:N ratio organic material (e.g., cereal straw) stimulates fungivorous nematodes late in the decomposition process (Ferris and Matute, 2003; Georgieva et al., 2005).”
Exotic plant influences soil nematode communities through litter input (2007, background): “Ferris and Matute (2003) have found that a litter with a lower C:N ratio is more rapidly occupied by bacterivorous nematodes than litters with higher C:N ratios.”
The distribution of nematodes and soil microbial communities across soil aggregate fractions and farm management systems (2011, background): “…(Ritz and Trudgill, 1999); because different feeding groups of nematodes are specialized with respect to their food sources and play essential roles in functioning of ecosystems (Yeates et al., 1993; Ferris and Bongers, 2006; Ferris and Matute, 2003; Ferris et al., 1996; Ingham et al., 1985).”
Plant species identity and diversity effects on different trophic levels of nematodes in the soil food web (2004, background): “Their abundance is also presumed to mirror that of other important consumers (Ferris and Matute 2003).”
Effects of organic amendment and tillage on soil microorganisms and microfauna (2010, background): “…et al., 2001) has been proposed as a mechanism to increase the abundance of predaceous nematodes and other biota that may then exert top–down control over lower trophic levels, including plantparasitic nematodes (Mankau, 1980; Yeates and Wardle, 1996; Wardle et al., 2001; Ferris et al., 2004).”
Unearthing the role of biological diversity in soil health (2015, background): “The guilds of this functional class include both the first responders to resource enrichment and those important in a successional context in continuing the function after the most labile resources have been depleted (Bongers and Ferris, 1999; Ferris et al., 2001; Ferris and Matute, 2003).”
