Pest profiles in today's global food production system are continually affected by climate
change and extreme weather. Under varying climatic conditions, plant-parasitic nematodes …

Latitude, climate and vegetation type are key factors in the distribution of soil nematodes.
The diversity of most aboveground organisms increases with decreasing latitude, but the …

Nematodes are the most diverse and highly significant group of soil-inhabiting
microorganisms that play a vital role in organic material decomposition and nutrient …

The world's ecosystems are subjected to various anthropogenic global change agents, such
as enrichment of atmospheric CO 2 concentrations, nitrogen (N) deposition, and changes in …

Given that soil water and nitrogen (N) are two major limiting factors for plant growth,
changing precipitation regime and atmospheric N deposition may have profound impacts on …

Plant parasitic nematodes constitute an important group of pathogens and cause 7–15%
yield loss to agricultural crops. The nematodes, besides causing direct damage to plants …

Drought and agricultural management influence soil microorganisms with unknown
consequences for the functioning of agroecosystems. We simulated drought periods in …

Nematodes are key components of soil biodiversity and represent valuable bio-indicators of
soil food webs. Numerous community indices have been developed in order to track …

Purpose Global warming and drying are important environmental issues. Our study aimed to
investigate how warming and precipitation changes affect soil nematode communities in an …

The environmental changes arising from nitrogen (N) deposition and precipitation influence
soil ecological processes in forest ecosystems. However, the corresponding effects of …
