4.9/5 (31063 ratings)

Description:This volume begins with an introductory chapter presenting the evolution and state of the art in soil ecology (history, bibliometrics, reviews, meta-analyzes). The book then discusses the diversity of mechanisms involved in soil ecological interactions and research perspectives in this area, as well as biodiversity and biological functioning of soils, particularly through the biological dimensions of Carbon cycles, Nitrogen and Phosphorus, and the need for stoichiometric studies of diversity - function relationships. Emphasis is placed on the relationships between living organisms, especially between plants and soil micro-organisms (coevolution, direct and indirect interactions, holobiont, spermoshere, rhizosphere, endophyte). The next chapter focuses on the determinants of community structure of soil fauna and their impacts on soil functioning. The book then discusses the interactions between soil and vegetation (structure of plant communities and soil functioning) and feedback loops in soils in terms of emergent properties and coevolution. Before a general conclusion on the coevolution of soil organisms and the perspectives for managing soil biodiversity for the provision of ecosystem services, the final chapter takes as an example the case of earthworms to illustrate micro-evolutionary processes in soil macrofauna species.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
