Collembola switch diet in presence of plant roots thereby functioning as herbivores. (2009, unknown): “by depositing faecal pellets (Teuben, 1991; Lussenhop, 1992; Jones, 1998; Filser, 2002).”
Role of Arthropods in Maintaining Soil Fertility (2013, background): “Several studies [128] have demonstrated that grazing by Collembola has a strong stimulatory effect on fungal growth and respiration.”
The application of vegetable, fruit and garden waste (VFG) compost in addition to cattle slurry in a silage maize monoculture: Effects on soil fauna and yield (2007, result): “Being considered fungal, and more general microbial, feeders [20,26], the results for the Collembola are not surprising and corroborate previous research [28,33].”
Carbon fluxes in soil food webs of increasing complexity revealed by 14C labelling and 13C natural abundance (2006, background): “An area of dispute is the influence of soil fauna on microbial activity and abundance (Hanlon and Anderson, 1979; Alphei et al., 1996; Filser, 2002; Bowman et al., 2004; Cole et al., 2004).”
Extreme winter warming events more negatively impact small rather than large soil fauna: shift in community composition explained by traits not taxa (2012, unknown): “© 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd, Global Change Biology, 18, 1152–1162 rhizosphere (Mitchell & Parkinson, 1976; Filser, 2002; Endlweber, 2009).”
Plant species richness drives the density and diversity of Collembola in temperate grassland (2011, background): “, via dissemination of microbial propagules and alteration of nutrient availability (Griffiths and Bardgett, 1997), Collembola can control the population dynamics of soil microorganisms (Parkinson, 1983; Filser, 2002).”
Soil fauna and soil functions: a jigsaw puzzle (2014, background): “Finally, other laboratory studies (Schulz and Scheu, 1994; Filser, 2003) concluded that while macrofauna (earthworms, Diplopoda, Isopoda), mesofauna (enchytraeids) and bacterial feeding microfauna all enhanced SOM decomposition, other mesofaunal groups (collembolans and oribatid mites) showed…”
